Quarter past seven

Quarter past seven
an airplane flies overhead
kettle comes to boil

No rest on weekends

No rest on weekends
motivation does not shrink
watchng wasps at work

Circumnavigate

Circumnavigate
the elephant in the room
staying in the dark

When feeling scattered

When feeling scattered
as concentration battered
listless feels write lists

Hellish winds forecast

Hellish winds forecast
dessicating from the north
ahead of cool change

Lead balloon just dropped

Lead balloon just dropped
no one heard it on Facebook
hidden in comments

Admiring flowers

Admiring flowers
learn they’re silverleaf nightshade
common noxious weed

While drawing myself

While drawing myself
I'm surprised to recognise
my life partner's face

Electric net shape

Electric net shape
dances on the diamond tiles
swimming past like eels

Canberra has grown

Canberra has grown
rashes of parking meters
acne of cities

compound interest
collects wherever cars rest
confounds motorists

Little dogs"woof woof"

Little dogs"woof woof"
parodying their owners
humans bark "shut up"

Kids each bought donuts

Kids each bought donuts
using money from Christmas
at Leeton Pool shop

Warm winds as sun fades

Warm winds as sun fades
looking for my pack of wolves
shoulders to brush with

Riding as dusk falls

Riding as dusk falls
nostalgia inducing
while looking ahead

Watching my mother

Watching my mother
show photos to her grandkids
on her computer

Quiet on the roads

Quiet on the roads
the two police cars spotted
seem half the traffic

Shape in air ahead

Shape in air ahead
can’t tell if a pelican
or a cropduster

Grey box gum tree

Grey box gum tree
against the water channel
squeezed by sunflowers

Like a pick pocket

Like a pick pocket
Robin Hood as pick pocket
known as put pocket

Lying in the bath

Lying in the bath
imagining constriction
relief in release
