Grammar

 


[December]

 "grammar haiku december"

poetry stored in the clouds

manuscripts

accumulate to dissolve

 

searching the supermarket

syllables

for all the sugars and spice

 

snowflakes santas stables stars

objective

correlatives more galore

 

light purple jacaranda

cedillas

soft land hard concrete footpaths

 

city of many childhoods

arguments

that days observe and resolve

 

traffic lights news updates

autocues

streaming subtitling crave rest

 

even this great crass corrupt

period

will end anon period

 

behind ring-road freeway sign

directions

sits another pam the bird

 

rainclouds coastwards greyblack hold

lacuna

seascapes beachheads landfall rain

 

curling drifting wye river

adjectives

screeching warbling swirling blue

 

like roads disappear round bends

sentences

offer more than what they say

 

art makes of bark and leaves fine

rendering

trees’ unending survival

 

trees experience choicest

writer’s block

too many choices of green

 

surf could care less about the

predicate

surging submerging splurging

 

fairy wren river motions

conjunction

ever with cormorant sea

 

separating the days’ long

paragraphs

lines from the kookaburras

 

summery is a one word

summary

fairly accurate to say
