Tangled

photo of the trunk and branches of a fig tree

Flexing lean muscles,
attention-seeking fig trees—
their wish, my command.

Expansion

Uncontrollable
pests—rabbit populations—
sprawled humanity.

Sigh

photo of two golden retreiver dogs lying on the cold tiles, exhausted

Knocked out of action,
hot and humid autumn day—
dogs breathe heavily.

Mobilising

Photo of the view through an airplant window just above the wing. Low clouds moving in the direction of travel.

Raking in dark clouds,
rounding up its minions,
thunder rolls around.

Samey

photo of a large-scale piece of art. It's a collage of various pieces of colour, with big bold text in it reading, Australian art does not exist. Each word in that setence is depicted in a different font, illustrating the any cultures that fuse to make Australian art.
Queensland Art Gallery, Brisbane

Unique is a farce—
many melding together,
a patchwork culture.
