SCENE FROM A MARRIAGE – Richard James Allen

You are my context, without you I’m a picture wandering out if its frame, a block of colour, a mess of sky.

WORLD WITHOUT YOU END – Geoffrey Dutton

World without you end, and no amens sing sleep my sorrowing soul. One istant then, it lain flat on the mind, as clouds lean on the oppressed hills.

ABSENCE, PEARL BEACH – Geoffre Dutton

The go-away dog, on the squeaky sand, hunts around for you. The sea back emptiness from the beach. A wave falls without you. The lorikeets flash, through the sombre trees. Colour gone with you. Our kookaburrasits, mute on the clothes hoist. No laughter without you. Your small thongs lie, wanly by the wall. I walk without you. The bed is a lump ofdead furniture. I lie without you.
