- trying to read
late-night thermometer
wormy scribbles - hazy moon
spilt formula
stains mum’s nightshift - red moon
how many berries
stains baby’s mouth? - wormy scribbles
it’s sleepy time
for baby - thick moonlight
between my fingers
folded nappy - lunar eclipse
mum examines the position
of soiled nappies - snowy peaks
the stack of nappies
taller than the house - heavy snow
the slow accumulation
of folded nappies - baby’s snores
merge with mum’s snores…
spring breeze - fresh milk–
pouring into my glass
thin moonlight - pouring out
fresh milk…
thin moonlight

2023 AWAKENING x
- rolling thunder
baby’s crying grows
even louder - spring clouds–
lined up in the pale blue
drying nappies - snowy mountains–
newly purchased nappies
all lined up - spring snowballs–
ball by ball lined up
soiled nappies - aired nappies
the lined-up row
of billowing clouds - a stirring of nappies
on the clothesline
billowing clouds - summer showers
the baby pees
again and again - summer drought
sleeping baby ceases
to drool - thick moonlight
mum drops a nappy
into the bin - noon breeze a crescendo of snores
