Reflection of the photographer and the Qantas signboard on an airport glass wall, with a plane on the tarmac outside visible through the glass, and the strap of a backpack on the foreground.

Buzzing airport lights;
seeking a different high,
solo traveller.

Build

Photo of multiple high-storey buildings as seen from the top floor of another high-storey building.

We make those buildings
constellation defying,
masking our night skies.

Out of mind

photo of the sunset's colours barely visible in the horizon, behind urban houses

Down our urban streets,
beyond the concrete facades,
sun sets out of sight.

Blossoming

Photo of white apricot flowers on bare tree branches, against a gloomy and cloudy spring day.

Like cream atop pie,
little white dollops on trees—
spring is in the air.

Paper

cropped photo of the Australian citizenship document, featuing only the coat of arms, the text Commonwealth of Australia, Australian Citizenship Act, 2007, and Australian Citizenship

A piece of paper;
all humanity is bound
by art, words, and ink.
