He completed school, did two years work, and started college late. (2)At the end of his [...]

(1)My first Blue Mountains journeys were on Sydney’s country trains, With scenery improving, once I’d gone past Emu Plains. I did not know the passengers around me, but perhaps one Might care to play a card game, since we’d only come to Lapstone (2)I closed my vintage fiction novel fast. So I could then look, [...]

The Clairvoyant Little feet hastened on the grass, To the call of a mother, She was her mother since those days, Days of gory crimes the two were unaware, But there was one man, who knew it all, He dreamt of white flashes and red rivers, Suffered a saga of bloodshed, Drugged himself [...]
