northwood

E144623-R1-00-24A

as I took this photo
my womb was ready
to shed her lining
and gift me with what I’d wanted all year

I knelt in the grass
stared adoringly at my lover
in absolute awe
of his resilience and strength

stranger

the level is rising
the salt dissolving
as the water laps around
my bushy mound

I can’t stop thinking about
sea levels rising
and how my own vagina
is a complete stranger

hervey bay

standing at the front of my favourite fast food joint
I pictured this shot in my head
the classic golden arches
towering over the national flag

kingfisher bay

we’d been on the beach since midday
enjoying drinks and nibbles for father’s day
this disinterested dingo
routinely scouted his beach

spring

it’s the first day of spring
the ocean is speaking
she wants you to come in
comforting, like a womb thing

home

sun drenched “driver’s arm”
barefoot to the peddle
full tank of petroleum
gearstick my fifth limb

my soul doesn’t want me to forget
that roaming is my home
I’m aligned when my feet aren’t rooted
permanently to the ground
