Storm coming

Photo of Currumbin beach in the Gold Coast, taken from the rocks at dusk with dark and stormy clouds gathering in the distant horizon.

Dark clouds amassing:
surfers moan and tourists groan;
storm chasers rejoice.

View

Photo of the Adelaide city as seen from the window seat of a plane soon after take-off.

Tiny blocks of land,
Lego houses by the coast—
overhead plane spies.

High command

Photo of the Adelaide coastline and jetty as seen from a plane window, during take off.

Far away from land
where all of life seems tiny
God complex reins high

Humid

Photo of the early orange colours of the sunrise behind tropical trees.

Four o’clock sunrises:
fogging up my camera,
Brisbane humid air.

Growth

Tripping up others,
climbing corporate ladders—
growth, allegedly.
