Exchange Rate
( depiction of our hoochie heroine being
nailed by a stranger on his car)
Branches warp inward where image reflects
Winscreen mangles trees in curved convex
Numbed halt of midday awaits later's laze
Birds suspended survey layered heat haze
Where for art thou crow's demand forlorn
Whips and ripples paisley foliage, air torn
Shuffle ruffles motley eucalyptus crews
Flora's koala arms will afford her rescue
Kookaburra vantage, vast birds eye view
Suspending foolish spectacle evitable
Hot face hover over bonnet maneuvers
Spur skyward climb, memory's removal
Barren unfathomed clay crunched pebbles
Beneath rolled sole boots, convey evitable
Without pattern, frustrated thrusts slip
Steel scorch sizzles sweat, elusive grip
Duco commodity, cancelled flat crucifix
Urges her escapism to ocean rush fizz
Bug umpires whistles amass harrassment
Topaz top mushrooms burst effervescent
Thighs printed by grille, his grunts ridiculous
Flora's tenure lessens, his groans ubiquitous
Deadening will release her, venture wiped
Dusty windows blurred initial lustful hype
Drought of thought which welded them
Meeting of minds surely smoulder when
Straggly bush barely smudges rooves of blue
Stupid choices compiled in direction evitable
10th September 2020
Quick examination of the role of choice
in fate. ( play with evitable )
