Renewed

Just met a few new people in my life and lo and behold, they are interested in my poetry. Great! Thing is I am not very good at selling myself or pushing myself onto centre stage. Nevermind. I've made my collected poems available to them and they seem very appreciative. Perhaps the visual or spiritual nature of these poems appeals to them. It's nice to be noticed, though.

Coffee and work

Coffee and work; work and coffee. For me the two go hand in hand. Couldn't face the working day without the aid of some strong caffeine first thing in the morning. Call me old fashioned. Life is hard enough without that particular liquid crutch. And so say all of us, let's hear it for the old brown bean. 'Tis a beauty, me hearties. But no Starbucks, obviously. That's for Yanks who don't know any better.

Poor poetry

Poetry is taking a back seat at the moment, I'm afraid. I am making some headway as a proofreader and editor and am quite enjoying finally making a few pennies with my writing, I have to admit. It's good fun to be rewarded for my efforts although I can see the Muse pouting as we speak. Never fear, I have not forgotten thee, my eternal love.

Blue hills

This standard picture reminds me of the Blue Mountains. It's that hazy blue glow over the trees that does it , I suppose.

Bats

My girlfriend lives in a suburb that can easily be described as very leafy. Long lanes of greenery bounding onto the road, nice properties, you know the drill. There is also a large park surrounded by what we Aussies call bush land. Here, on the steep pathway leading up to her apartment block, you may come across all manner of wildlife: brown snakes (not to be messed with), possums, rats, owls. The other day I walking there at night and suddenly looked overhead at this huge bat that skimmed over my bonce. It was quite a sight. I do like a bit of Gothic imagery, me.
