Rangitoto Island, as seen from Mission Bay, Auckland.

Angry pimples burst;
hormonal Mother Earth:
volcanoes galore.

At war

Photo of a partly cloudy morning, with the sun filtering through the clouds and the Auckland Sky City in the background.

A feud in the skies—
the sun at war with the clouds,
both seek the spotlight.

Reclaim

Photo of a large tree’s branches ground around a lamp post, pushing into it.

Timber v. metal:
ancient trees reclaim their space,
snuffing out our lights.

Delicious

Close up photo of a yellow lily with ants in it.

Like a butter dish,
giant yellow daylily—
a feast for the ants.

Mother lava

Photo of a luscious volcanic mountain.

Such attractive curves;
dormant, ever volcanic—
erupts sans warning.
