Was I awake Sunday at 2am, isn’t a revelation
but it comes on back of a decision to live easy;
gone ‘up country’ y’ know, further away than ’n
easy stroll to the nearest shop, ten minutes by
ute I’d guess so remoteness is getting the few
utilities to work - like satellite TV, and Telstra’s
supposedly universal telephone line - there is
a defined black hole thinking its all so naive
Yet the quiet is punctuated only by the ‘gidday’
bellows of a few cattle beast, or neighs from a
grey mare stopping by to natter - & amazingly
swooshing of occasional cars hardly registers;
it says, sort of, relax, merge with the tapestry,
already we feel like its weaving us in
