The Strangeness of June

Pockets of late March
puff balls form on the ground
Butcher bird chick rebels
and throws pillows from her cot
at the Bogong moths
Fairy penguins destroy their eggs
The aluminium grey Southern Cross
has become invisible on the horizon

Dung beetles have infested the shopping centres
A missing concierge is found in a termite's nest
Pyramids of morning glory
the heretics of the natural world
overtake the forest

Packages of macadamia nuts
are found under doors
The ides of March has lost her way
Centrefold of the wrong month
