In every corner
Of this day
Sun, moon lit
Landscape
Hide, creep, scamper
Scatter, scurry
Scores of tiny
New Zealand and
Outside animals
All sorts of
Scientific classifications
Homeland, at home
Spiders, lizards
Geckos, bats
Birds of all kinds and plumage
Foreign outsiders
Feral classes
Possums, cats
Stoats, rats and wild pigs
The sun as always
Shines down into the dark secrets
Of my inner skull
Emptied by revealing light
Shows all the hidden
Tiny animals
Made from electrical impulses
Like a binary creature
The poplars
The rest areas
The eternal mysteries of Nana B
Never uncovered even on her death-bed
New Zealand holds
So many mysteries
Enough to last for
Centuries of evolution
In the Buddhist
Born again
Discoveries of reincarnation
Final emptiness and full-
filment
