Tall dreams

Photo of a tall residential building and the moon next to it. The angle of the photo makes it look like the building is higher than the moon.

Even the moon’s small
only humans dream so high
local skyscraper

Insomniac

Photo of the moon nestled between the branches of leafless trees, se against a vibrant blue sky.

Sky brings on the blues
not a single cloud in sight
insomniac moon

Distraction

Photo of a street in Auckland in the morning, with sidewalk trees and the moon still visible in the sky.

Our world is at war
racing fast to the bottom
while the moon rises

Sleepy town

Photo of the full moon at night and the silhouettes of tall trees.

All the world’s asleep
the full moon comes out to play
old trees babysit

Pale dot

Photo of the half moon before sunrise, in a backyard with the silhouette of the shed and surrounding trees visible.

Single pale white dot
from deep in the western sky
rises with our hopes.
