Fit

photo of New Zealand's landscape as seen from the window of a plane

Like a Lego world
slotting into each other
earth’s tectonic plates.

Focus

Photo of the top of Skycity in Auckland, as seen while walking down a dirt track on a volcanic hill.

Walking the dirt track
focused on glitz and glamour—
small snake slithers past.

Propel

Photo of a small plane’s propellers, as seen through the window of the plane.

All the world’s a plane
we’re strapped in a window seat
propelling through life.

Judgement

photo of a steep hill and trees growing diagonally on it

I clamber uphill;
raising judgmental eyebrows,
rolling their eyes—trees

We bicker for Mars,
fawn over the red planet;
sun kissed land is here.
