Morning blackbird only
one stray feather
out of place

Back in Brisbane
looking at this shiny new city
from the 56th floor
with an old inhabitant's eyes
am I down there somewhere
23 years ago?

A student with no car only
shoes and public transport
walking, walking, walking, my footsteps drumming out a future - look up kid -
Here I am

There's a kink in the neck
of the bookmark
my mother knitted for me
where it holds the page

She knitted it to use up
excess wool but every book
I read I'm reminded of her
The sign of a perfect love
for an imperfect son

Working on a blog post about the brilliant work of artist joncarling.bsky.social and fell in love with the art. Had to buy a couple of prints and a greeting card from his online shop joncarling.bigcartel.com

Package arrived with doodles on it and some extra stickers. Much appreciated, Jon!

Backlit clouds
take centre-stage
orange embers that
ignite the dregs of the day
as ceding blue skies applaud

I think of those men
huddled around in the
polar ice
scientists after all
illuminating their frozen
ship The Endurance for a
ghostly photo of maritime
bones in the night

I can hear wood splitting

morning light horizon
divides a pale blue sea
from a selfsame sky
