Ode to life’s chances
I think that I’m a failure ‘cos I can’t win the game; I get the Tatslotto numbers wrong, no matter where I aim. I thought I was a winner but it seems I’m meant to fail, And without it how’ll … Continue reading

Trumpets

Well my Old Man was a Bushie and he had a Bushie’s heart and the Eucalypts and Dad just couldn’t part. It would never matter where he was or the company he held, betwixt him and the bush there was … Continue reading

The Red Pen
Every person who I passed stood stiff with their eyes downcast. In their step there was no pride; they talked as if they tried to hide. To be seen there was their great fear; the wrath of God ever hovered … Continue reading
