and the days of Eureka Stockade,
plus winning horses, on racing courses,
where flanks of the horses are flayed.

for a winner that’s greeting...

Bigfoot's Ancient Great Granddaddy
Who is Bigfoot’s Great-grand Daddy?

Whether living in a city or on the mountain side,
People from the world around astound us with their views.

Only tracks are left...

Bushies fighting continually, fire, floods and drought
And so the...

Who is the bear;
That is running scared?
Taken what is not his
What it is, what it is;
Telling you what's good for you
And what's not
Drinking portage and hemlock (what)
And who is the lion
whose got the people crying
Saving...

All our comings, and goings,
And if for Him, we had zeal.

There’ll be the times we gave,

Some
Some are born into a house
With no love.
  Some learn quickly how to
Push when they shove.

  Some are born with a
Silver spoon in hand.
  Some live off the

Next to the cashmere pillow,
The pier near the gallow shore/
A man began to speak,

Within this land there shall be no way out accept I tax,
This gravitational pull may bring some down,

Body Talk
I recall your slim ankles,
your fine wrist bones,
the sleek musculature
of your strong limbs.

My butt in the easy chair
weighs heavily on my mind.
Yes that well-oiled anatomy of youth

Four feathers grew upon his chin.
