• The Blind ComputerHe sits there, whirring, hard drive ticking away.
    Powers running, fans are on, but somethings gone astray.
    His face is missing, broken now, never to be fixed.
    The mind is willing, body gone, time to rest me thinks.

  • Long Way Up

    The Ants 
    Douglas Florian 

    Ants are scantily 
    Half an inch long,
    But for their size 
    They’re very strong.
    Ants tote leaves 
    Five times their weight 
    Back to their nest 
    At a speedy rate.
    They walk on tree limbs 
    Upside down 
    A hundred feet 
    Above the ground,
    While down below 
    Beneath a mound 
    They’re building tunnels 
    Underground.
    And so it’s been 
    And it will be 
    Since greatest 
    Ant antiquity.

  • KitchenNot much time for words today. Just a shot off the camera from a work trip to Sachie’s Kitchen in Aucklands CBD.

    Just squeezing in, as technically I was there with my old team after changing roles, we had a great afternoon leaning how to and then cooking a variety of tasty dishes.

    The staff were friendly, helpful and entertaining. A great place to visit for a group, work team or other gabble of people.
