Matinee

Photo of a deeply vibrant sunset as seen from the street, with traffic lights on red.

All the world must stop
watch Mother Earth gulp her sun
daily matinee

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

Run

Photo of Rangitoto island as seen from a distance, a tree branch in the foreground putting the distance in perspective.

I’ll run far enough
till mountains become molehills
life is all problems

Fail

Close up photo of a vibrant, green fern tree.

We fail constantly

seeing blurred crumpled edges

forgetting green grass

Blur

Photo of the Sky Tower as seen across Victoria Park in Auckland City, the top of the tower shrouded by fog.

Blurry on the edge
waking on Wednesday mornings
classic hangover
