lyrics

Poor spine me,
Gone bend where
Straight should be.

Poor bunny grey,
Scent of earth now
Scent of hay.

Nesting, yawning thylacine,
Pouch face backward,
Doom unseen.

Little dog you,
Rib meet claw
Of kangaroo.

Sleep in clay diprotodon,
Jawbone strong when
Skull is gone.

Wildcat wail,
Shotgun make
For blood on tail.

Poor spine mine,
Settle on a mattress
Like trilobites.

-Gareth Hipwell (2017)
