States of Poetry 2016 - South Australia | 'In Camera' by Thom Sullivan

by
States of Poetry South Australia - Series One

A day in parallax – duco-blue –
a crop of borrowed gold,
in focus, replete –

fibrous stems of light, agitated,
and, over them, the bales
of cloud dispersing.

The motor ticking
long after it is silenced.
And the impulse it honours: this.
