starter

rubber tarmac fight
blue smoke stink
hairpin
a bunch of yaaaaaarhs
gaaaaaaaaarns getfuckeds
stiff arms waving
from the blur
with the glint of beer colour
glass cracking toast
cracksmashtinkle
yaaaaaaaarh
aaaaaaaaaarh she skids a thud
yella glass sprays
into the bush gasping
eastern greys pogo out
of scribbly gums
shade thin as sticks

amber ooze
cracking tree
phalanger turns
head tucked
black noon
cicadas with your
cluster eyes
drummer
green stick pin singin
wild chorus in the canopy
of flowering mountain ash

glass spawn
glints from rock
it split its head
open the thick
jagged lip
sizzles with light
