Leaning in

Photo of a gum tree on the sidewalk, leaning across the road.

The leaning tower
of South Australian suburbs:
ancient eucalypt.

Question

Photo of a street light with a as witch’s hat on it.

What’s the point of life
if you’re lighting others’ paths
yet not lighthearted?

Hail

Photo of the sun, just after sunrise with the cranes from two construction sites turned towards east, at the sun.

Crisp autumn morning:
city under construction—
all cranes hail the sun.

Winter is coming

Gently a breeze blows,
creates waves on the ocean—
a city shivers.
