When the world begins again


So I've decided to give this another go. When last I blogged stuff it felt really weird and uninviting, especially to me. I don't think there was anything bad about what was on here. But... I dunno... it just kinda got the better of me until I convinced myself to tear the fuckin site down. Which is impossible or something because it's still here, blinking at me like the eye of Sauron.

The picture is from my recent trip to NT and a small Indigenous community I visited to volunteer in a school holiday program. I spent much time writing and exploring the surrounding countryside, when I wasn't playing basketball with kids who taught me to swear in Arrente language...

There's a road that leads to
nowhere
and everywhere
at once.

Where the earth stares at the
stars
and can't hide its
lust.

Where they roll out the
red carpet for you.
Red sky
and
red dust.

On this road that leads to
nowhere
and everywhere
at once.
