We come sit down
About the suffering of a whole race.

Flourless Cake
Baking a cake without flour, making a poem without...

Winter
Enduring a stark winter

The Sunbaker
What might be inside one of Australia's iconic images?

Four short poems
Some little snippets, snapshots really

Falling to earth
An inevitable falling from grace, long and slow

Oblivion
A piece of darkness

Soup the loop
Silly business in rhyme

Olive e-zine
The cheek sucking sharpness of olives

A ditty to scale
A jaunty fun-piece

Birding
At the beach

Acceptance
Acceptance has two faces

In the Archive
A life is a repository of treasures

Mystery of me
Looking from the outside we don't see past the surface

Coming to grief
Arriving in this place

Broken Glass
What do we make of an event like this?

The River Today
Nothing special happening on the river today

Waterfall
Trust and necessity

This coat
My new winter coat got me thinking

Shape-changers
Embracing uncertainty

Love in her eyes sits playing
What's in a name?

Carrying Catastrophe
On the brink of disaster

My road
Knowing my way 

Tired, creased and rumpled
Waking after a hot afternoon nap 

Life's Joy
Exuberant life calls me 

The Wild Hunter
The fiery angel seeking souls 

Where will I find myself?
Practising to be me 

A difficult place
Listening for what needs to be said 

The Miserly Poet
The poet who opinionates 

Slave to the subordinate clause
Laughing at language but loving it 

Poet's Craft
Finding poetry 

Hollow Treasures
When meaning simply isn't there 

The wind gusted
A moment of dislocation
