Cordite Poetry Review

'She comes on too strong. Sacrifice
dear ones to placate the mephitic
breath of the goddess. Magnani1
idols offered-up to an animal pulse
hustling amongst the slave class.
I carusi 2 buckle under and wombs
bag-up hellfire. Bare bottomed mules
moil for brimstone, too cavernous
to keep in olives and bread.' (extract from Volcanic Fed)

'We are locked down in masked isolation, so communication becomes virtually intimate. Online, sunsets bleed recurrently in a speculative dimension, while a bushfire burns on the ground. It is a familiar crisis. Friends share posts of cremains cloaking their suburbs like it’s extraordinary. I run to be free of the gag, and after thirty-eight years of waking up to the smell of smoke-filled hair, I write the next edit.'

'They never went back. I return

 to a Wanneroo Nursery to meet them.

It was meant as a slur. They claim

Neapolitan but we are hill people poor.

My uncle whose head is chestnut

wrought brands me a testa dura.[1]

I’m awed by her hubris & wish

I was so sure.' extract from An Appendage
