Currently reading You Will Find Your Way by Naomi Arnold. I’ve been annotating, underlining, writing back; turning reading into a conversation, not consumption.

Talking Australian

He lobbed up in the arvo
like a bucket of prawns in the sun.
Bangers on the barbie
the day was nearly done.
Grabbed himself a cold one,
lay down on the lawn.
Put his arms around a Sheila
and danced away till dawn.

To fight, to rage, to rise, to act, to break the chains of greed,
Or lose the last of all she holds — the future left to bleed.
