Halfway up the Mt. Remarkable summit trail, SA, overlooking small town Melrose and the Flinders Ranges beyond

Climbing a mountain—
miles to go before I sleep,
but will stop and breathe.

a grave enclosed in metal railings, part of which is broken and scattered in the ground nearby
Cemetery, Melrose, South Australia

Crumbled bones, grave sites,
enduring the test of time—
tell stories of gore.
