severe thunderstorms one day
severe bushfires the next. such is life in Queensland
26.10.25 saw a thunderstorm of large velocity
power gone, trees blown down with such ferocity.
the birds are dead quiet, the neighbours kids have quit play
for the glass and plastic roof shards from where the hail ripped through - just lay.
the echoes of chainsaws ripple through the gully
last light is near, so everyone’s in a hurry.
stuff is just stuff and things can be replaced,
only until the next storm we inevitably face.
