earthquake in Victoria today...

Western Victoria had a bit of a 'shaking up' morning today about 8am...
This 3.7 earthquake rocked the Stawell and Ararat area near Glenorchy... https://t.co/1UHL8Ie9h2

when life's rubble
needs cleansing#haiku

beautiful mystery of the sea...

Such fascinating, mysterious sea life...
I dragged the photo to Google images, but nothing seemed to match or come close...
Incredible and beautiful mystery... https://t.co/YqnDbQgvO8

UPDATE: I have now learnt that this is a Anemone Phlyctenactis tuberculosa - wandering (or swimming) sea anemone...

MY POETIC REVIEW of 'A Theatre for Dreamers' by Polly Samson

sunny island days
intent on keeping
the Cold War at bay
(at least
the political Cold War)
other wars were
simmering
brewing
but where there's
sea
sun
ouzo
stars and
a slice of moon.......https://t.co/szjNtO2yNC

summer afternoon...

hazy
numb
afternoon
distant music
dots the air #tanka

'Shadow in the Cloud'...

My son's review...Don't see 'Shadow in the Cloud'. The script is bad. Very bad. It needs a therapist.
However, if you enter with low expectations and know it's a horror masquerading as a comedy, go on, knock yourself out! The pain won't last long...https://t.co/fwJJQVUIQo

persistent woodpecker...

I am quite sure
the persistent
woodpecker I hear
has flailing arms
not wings #tanka

a whisper of rain...

a whisper
of rain
scents the air #haiku

slamming flyscreens...

slamming flyscreens
bubbling babble
high-pitched squeals
holiday children
on the rampage #tanka

my bohemian interlude...

my bohemian interlude
I float and
breathe in
Charmian's music
of Hydra #tanka
