Poetry


Just a few haikus I wrote on Sep 14


Bin Laden's brothers
Flew through the blue autumn sky
Crumbling two sisters



Gaze at blank pages
The wind howls in Devonport
Composing haikus



Pilgers' photos show
The West moving its problems
To where life is cheap



"You'll never beat me"
But Deep Blue won that chess game
Against Kasparov



Less happens in time
As evolution speeds up
Whither do we go?



"You cannot camp here"
"Why not? There is no notice"
"'Cause I have a gun"



Stroll on Bethell's beach
Freak wave wets rolled up trousers
Startled dog attacks



Candlelit cowpat
Centre of the universe
Casked wine, camper's friend



No signs for Piha
We'll go to South Head instead
Maybe tomorrow



Mighty kauri tree
Sad father of the forest
Children have left home



Four sisters stand tall
Circumnavigate in awe
In the silent woods



DJ plays Marley
The crowd feel one love alright
Let's get together



Purchased in Sydney
A small inflatable globe
Whole world in my hands



Building with atoms
There is room at the bottom
Feynman said it first



Soprano Sinéad
We signed the wall of The Cube
Singing 'til midnight



Six Aussie actors
Play All-Blacks and Munstermen
In Alone It Stands
