Turning in the crisp clean pages muddy with
Black Dogs barking in your head
They run all night chasing your tail
You twist and turn...

Exploring the suburbs at Melbourne
Glad are the late nights’ burnt

Bustling Bourke Street Mall
Epitome of a retail therapy’s call

The archaic Flinder’s Station

while waving to the hidden Walter Payton

Beyond the blue ... 
sailing past the farthest tearful kiss blown
Hoping for clear skies ahead,
as my Aussie eyes see wallaby clouds
joyfully jumping by

a dragging anchor of parting sadness
has dropped to the deep

running the Niles to desert,
crossing the Niger to the ocean,
a Congo in...

Along forest lake walks under the blue,

Excited we were for the double delight,

Long travel concluded into a toast,
Beaches and sea, Byron bay...

Parched and dry I stand,
Waiting and recalling 
thirsty for your love,
At the Gold Coast

Under the blue 
on the sandy gold,
Memories afresh
Soothing winds unfold !

Your deep dark eyes that...

are spanning the globe; 
what lies within its...

"Fathoms Deeper"


What are these strange creatures?
They swim in skins
not their own

calling us 
into them 
they amuse us
