Artiste

Sold out performance,
standing ovation from trees,
the sun takes a bow.

Discord

Splatter of colours,
cacophony on canvas—
cloudy summer’s day.

Unwarranted life,
blemish in a perfect world,
weeds are beautiful.

Shelling left and right,
corroded metallic smoke—
my flowers wither.

Fed by sun and rain—
feeding gold honeyeaters—
bright bottlebrushes.
