Underbelly elipsis sits<br />
strung under and over<br />
twisted with undeveloped curses<br />
enveloped in a sea of gold<br />

stretched and twisted beside<br />
an undeniable melted secret<br />
switched on and start anew<br />
<br />
And the belching lady sings<br />
an the subtle rainout howls<br />
and the collective harmony<br />
falls down to the floor</div>

elongating distances between limbs<br />

bountiful eloquence with mother tongue<br />

tangerine oranges<br />
the cusp of Byzantine times<br />
handful of Roman stones<br />
bedroom of drying clothes<br />

hair pins greet hair cuts<br />
pelted thigh<br />
wheat beer<br />
sugar's too sweet<br />
and then the clocks change</div>

A woman walks along the street in Barcelona. She is crying quietly, but she does not allow the sadness to infect her walk, or posture, her quiet outward display of inward emotions. It is her contorted face, streams of unwipable tears that give her secret away.<br />
A child, her child I assume, walks by her side, hand in her hand, eyes directed forwards staring into an infinity of the street ahead of her. The child stares into the future and the past.<br />
Besides the woman walks a man, I guess her younger brother. He can see the cars and pedestrians and bicycles that are invisible to those he walks with. He is in the present. He is The Rock.<br />
The woman pushes open the door of Burger King. They exit the street, and enter the fast food joint. Comfort food. <br />
Another story, in another life that you and I will never know.</div>

Why do I keep doing this?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To myself</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
to my friends</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
why do I keep leaving?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It kinda feels</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
like it’s beyond me somehow</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
that by committing my life</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
to the ebbs and flows</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
to the tos and fros</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
to chance and opportunity</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
that it turns out that I didn’t choose to leave</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
but more like</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
there was little choice but to go</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
for the now</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
but I’ve said it before</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and now</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ll say it again</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
without any ego or pretext</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
that I do love Perth</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and that I will be back.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The only thing</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
that hinges heavily on that remark</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
is that to move again may be too much.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve done it before</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and again</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and again</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and each time</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
it feels</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
more and more difficult to say goodbye.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s almost as if</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
there are two of me,</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
one of me craves stability</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
of location</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
of friendship</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
of routine</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
but the other me</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
fights without reserve</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
against the restraints of safety of stability.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And that’s not a bad thing</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
it’s been a great thing</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
it’s the thing that forces me</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
to travel the world</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
to try different jobs</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
to move to different places</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
not based on need</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
but based on adventure</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and I get that</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and I do love that</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
but leaving Perth</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
after my two year stint</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I have just realised</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
how ingrained I have become</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
how much family I have here</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
related not by blood</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
but through shared experiences</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
interests</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
time</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
unconditional love</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and I’ll miss my Perth
family</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
but they give a reason to return</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and I will</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
be back</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
brace yourselves.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It’ll be slightly glorious</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
but largely humbling</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and the houses in Perth
will be cheaper</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
because by then</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
the mining boom will be over</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and we can surf</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
at trig</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and camp on weekends</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and soak up the sun</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
for nine months of the year</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and even winter will be okay</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
because next time</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ll have a good heater</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
and a car to get around.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
