Under a blazing sunTwo lasses satDigging out roots
knowing where they were at
The Cossid moth
grubs
big juicy souls
wriggling quietly
each having roles
of juicy expression
witchitty grubs
digging and digging
under the shrubs
a fine Lepidoptera
squeezed, out of a stalk
eaten raw or baked dry
watch the soul walk
sort of peanut buttery with a
fishy taste
jolly bush tucker
their table be graced
carry on digging
goanna be true
Grabbed in its burrow
and cooked how you do
squeeze out its guts
its remnants and bake
bash it to smithereens
for nobody sake
burnt in the embers A lizard cake
Makes a fine picnic
It’s give and take
from the sandy red soil
where the tall grasses be.
asleep in its burrow
Deep down Come and see
