i woke this morning
to a neutral voice intoning
bombs in marketplaces
and refugees washed upon the shore
to music of breath and skin
dark cascade of pillowed hair
gossamer feather of touch
to dreams of justice
from the vast sea's edge
to beyond the distant shore
to a jacaranda blue day
dancing through the curtain
and kookaburras' chorus of song.
