We come from the void,
to the void we shall return—
permanent rentals.

Perspective

One man’s trash,
another’s treasure—
droppings

Going to war

Trees thriving in Canberra's spring

An army so poised,
ready to take on the world;
colonists with saws.

All the world’s a stage

Hop jump and step up,

shoulder to shoulder we move—

as dancers, soldiers.

The elders

Shrivelling over time,

crippling under the world’s weight—

the ageing, the tree.
