arriving sudden
down goanna tail curves
 
a stoneyard o shipwrecks
pearls n th trees
 
a chaingang o scarecorws
nourishing th sward
 
outdone by Sophie Jane.
 
Yengo to Wollombi
meeting o th waters.
 
Imagine, Uncle
th black silent feet
 
passing afore
th whiteblaze wind
 
th lake’s dull wax
th shining silver eyes
 
cattle n th rut
s iron turns t rust
