Towering stature
of skyline deities
breathing life into
electrical amenities.

You Take My Breath Away
Blood moon
you take my breath away
an infinite circle
of abundance sways
in a lunation
to change my world
on the precipice
my destiny swirls
along a spiritual edge
I dangle
with some loss
as I must wrangle
my purged life
now freshly untangled.

Carving Graves
Carving graves
mountain sheds
the laboured breaths
of silent dead.

Hot Breeze Shuffles
Hot breeze shuffles
feathers ruffled
birdsong muffled
by gasping breaths
in desperate address
trying to avoid
untimely deaths.

Pavement Cracked
Pavement cracked
heel snapped
shoe twisted
foot trapped.
Bones release
pain hits
caught my breath
between my lips.

Sweet Kookaburra
Sweet kookaburra
sighed last breath
upon the bitumen
causeway of death
his soul flies
forever free
song always joyous
and happy is he.
