Food machine

Close up photo of a puppy looking longingly at the photographer’s hand, which is out of the frame, but holding a piece of cracker.

Eyes full of longing
every dog yearns for some love
shaped like a biscuit.

Party trick

Photo of a chandelier style ceiling light, casting its shadows on the ceiling.

Vintage chandelier,
charming a new audience—
throwing globes around.

Regrow

Close up photo of the peeling bark of a paperbark tree.

Bravely paperbark
slashes open its old heart
so it grows anew.

Lights!

Photo of a light installation with multi-coloured metal rods resembling the light sabres in the Star Wars universe.

Glowing live action,
lightsabers in formation—
child’s play for adults.

Clarity

Close up photo of coffee in a mug, with the froth on the edges of the mug and the liquid forming path that’s clear of froth.

Staring at coffee
waiting for the clouds to part,
for my path to form.
