Poem -

When the kookaburra stops laughing

A little diddy

He looked into the abyss 
Death looked into him 

The tide pulled at his eyes 

His mind unwound 

 

The rope he used to tether himself 

Useless 

A landscape before him

Undone among clouds

 

He would think to himself;

Were it not for her

A prism of light

Night would uncurle

I want you like coffee,
Hot but smooth.
