This little cardboard room.

A cardboard hot ride;

Take flight, up high
Sky land, with a cardboard box?
So high, up clouds
loudly up, barrel light?
Do tricks, take a pick
ice cream licks, boomy boom?...

Cardboard Ceiling
After you left, I
Found my pride crouching inside
A homeless man’s box
I crawled inside and
Collapsed, releasing the last
Of love’s butterflies

a cardboard cut-out
of a mirror,
the reflection
was a busy world
it didn't look real,
those colours

homeless, my dreams
wander the street
sleeping in a cardboard box
chilled from the cold
and rumbling hunger
longing for more
hoping for shelter
love that will
take them in...

Saving a Bug
bug inched around my glass rim
i knew it could fly off
it didn't
so I captured it
between a glass and a piece of cardboard
walked it outside and let it go.
I am a hero.
One more life saved...

Searching For the Smuggler's Cave

tobogganing down the slope
of the Aberfeldie Park hill
on a piece of cardboard
then adventuring to the smuggler's cave
near the Maribyrnong River
searching for buried treasure....
