Often I will say

Often I will say
music is way too much fun
not to have a go

The way falling snow

The way falling snow
Reveals the gusts of breezes
Makes the unseen seen

Finches scattering

Finches scattering
Easily mistaken for
Leaves blown from the road

Erratic squiggles

Erratic squiggles
across rectangles of green
and brown wide land

Two homeless men fight

Two homeless men fight
over a cigarette pack
as a crowd gathers

Riverina May

Riverina May
Smoke and dust have filled the sky
The moon is frowning

Like some stained painting

Like some stained painting
Sky blue with grey, white and brown
Smokey horizon

Bitburger Premium Beer

Like apple strudel
as it dissolves on my tongue
and cleans my palate

Balmain Pale Ale

Like tinned pears on toast
with a dash of cream and then
pureed for smoothness

Your cunt is like words

Your cunt is like words
on the tip of my tongue but
unable to mouth

Mournful Butcherbird

Mournful Butcherbird
sings the death of the seasons
summer and winter

So much discomfort

So much discomfort
is like prickles in one's socks
Small on inspection

Cicadas singing

Cicadas singing
as the mercury rises
soundtrack to summer

Morris 1999 Durif

Baring tannin teeth,
while hiding softening fruit.
Needs a few more years.

GIFs are the haiku

GIFs are the haiku
of internet media,
compression defined.

Off in the distance

Off in the distance
short rising notes of alarm
sound like guinea pigs

Lying in my bed

Lying in my bed
listening to the rain fall
as the sky lightens

Cloying taste of milk

Cloying taste of milk
as it coats tannins in tea
seems soft like cut pine

Listening to birds

Listening to birds
Their cheerful chirps and chirrups
The roosters crowing

Like folded clothing

Like folded clothing

but on closer inspection

a flattened magpie
