Bora born
Broke back blackstone _
The post office store, a crossfire hold out of
religious zeal spiflicates all those who come.
Sunday church under eucalypt shade has it's
way with you such a natural setting for the
gospel message, magpies chorus up in kind.
If you don't like the sermon that's what's the back
door's for the preacher yells, those crows in accord.
In search of lost hope as a breeze in disguise
such downside under eucalypts nature born
a church split from business, with spit in your eye.
A gathering of nine steal a guess as laughing
head clowns swivel then nod as if in a dream.
An elderly lot, dementia to rush their
way, realty too slow to settle on
thempla as tithes asked for, the box passed around.
A later cut tour of the building surrounds
a purchase so suss inspections retired.
A broke back shed from '54, termites must
be well fed, yard fill pushed floor board high where steps
once were known, sliding doors meet a troubled ground.
Instant karma the order of the day as
deceptions pervade enterprise once benign.
The correspondence surreal white anted
within those principles of stories told
from the crossfire of shout outs we all should transcend.
