Traveller

Screenshot of the flight route map on an international flight from Melbourne to Singapore.

Halfway round the world
spotting clouds from in the air—
minuscule human.

Storytellers

Near invisible,
life between the crevices—
spiders spin stories.

Musical

a hiking trail with tall, slender gum trees on either side of it

Natural talent,
as rhythmic whisper of gums,
percussionists.

Hi-vis

photo of the Alligator Gorge in the Mount Remarkable national park, with tall and slender gum trees within the stone structures — Alligator Gorge, Mount Remarkable national park, South Australia

Outstanding colours,
like spots on a Dalmatian—
gum trees in a gorge.

Reflections

photo of a can of pale ale from the time of the First World War, with the words, "God 'elp all of us" inscribed in it

Gulping down a beer,
mundane summer afternoon—
god help our soldiers.
