Hold

Close up photo of a tightly bound bud of a yellow flower.

Wrapped up quite tightly,
flower bud clings to future—
as a baby’s palm.

Turn

The end approaches,
though spring blossoms cling to trees
seasons turn around.

View

Photo of the Adelaide city as seen from the window seat of a plane soon after take-off.

Tiny blocks of land,
Lego houses by the coast—
overhead plane spies.

High command

Photo of the Adelaide coastline and jetty as seen from a plane window, during take off.

Far away from land
where all of life seems tiny
God complex reins high

Problem solving

photo of a person's hand on a laptop, with a black catch sleeping on the keyboard, its paw on the laptop screen

Cat and its human
solve all of life’s conundrums
just scratching at screens
