Dusky time
what’s in the craw? – caught –
a tacit whisper,
held in extremis
maroon leaves pause,
a clash of wings over,
flaked paint shingles
in chlorophyll surrounds.
Rusted
Statue
Flowers
jostle downward
in half – formed shadows
a plundering moon
concealed.
spinifex splayed
ends with brackens
whisked animations.
