There are two ways to be fooled.
One is to believe what isn’t true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.
Søren Kierkegaard

Australia: that image of you swinging in a hammock
with your turned down vowels & breezy Saturdays
sea foam & bleached sand, always armed with summer
ready for a spin bowl at a moment’s notice
With the flush of Eucalypt passion
and composition of complication
Asphalt veins across the continent
All roads leading home
