sortie
flying low now
minimalist altitude maintained
’tis better to stay low on the night run
with an attitude set on auto-pilot
we stay on alert
every retail-corner in this Australian landscape
has a liquor store
and thus,
an undeterminable charge of electricity
the kind of energy that snaps
a person
in two
good and evil
for better or worse
the spirit of the suburbs is exposing its dependency for booze
but
the suburbs are far
