Bora born
Sarub _
Cairns gourmet seafood a curious lot
under Katies roof, dead centre, right spot.
She always stands out as you pass the place
by the door alone, she patiently waits.
How do they ever manage to pay bills
no customers to put coin in the till.
A sentinel of hope she stands sublime
in the need of custom just one more time.
- O -
Sarub is a language name from the Torres Strait which means to be alone by yourself.
