Pigeon Bay
Rose darling here’s a kiss
for your long long
journey to Te Reinga
and Maraschino from Trieste
Then Sue and Llew turn off
the bumpy other
gravel road to
cuddle and caress
But I
sleepwalking slug my clothes and
the shortest day
dogpaddle
Macrocarpas, Nest
and Sue’s photo
Blue. Distant shade. Smoky intimate
dark McGregor shirt
So cold. So green. So still
So wonderful
Nothing else
matters
I’m a Wolfboy
Nothing else matters
