Tourist

Photo of Auckland’s Sky Tower, lit up in multiple colours at sunset, along with the traffic on the motorway below.

A city decks up
lights, camera, and action—
tourists drop their jaws.

Achievements

Photo of the moonrise, surrounded by tall buildings and trees.

Rising high above,
overshadowing our moon—
human construction.

Moonlighting

Photo of the Soy Tower in Auckland as seen through a canopy of trees, along with a nearly-full moon.

Lighting our city
glowing down from a great height
Sky Tower moonlights

Cake

Photo of lush green mountains in New Zealand

Multi-layer cake;
land of volcanic mountains,
folds in on itself.

Shake

Close up photo of a map of New Zealand’s South Island in the foreground and the North Island in the background.

Shaking fat fingers,
humans seek to achieve big—
earth shakes; we’re done for.
