Guiding light

Photo of a big cloud at sunset, surrounded by and orange glow, as seen from the window seat of a plane.

Vibrantly orange
leaping ahead of our plane,
ghost cloud leads the way.

Ready

Photo of a Qantas plane stationary on the tarmac.

Decked up and ready,
primed to take the storms head on—
pilot grabs the mic.

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
