salt
ephrastic for Carlene West’s ‘”Tjitjiti’
an otherworldly where
lower than the sea
still floating
spinifex
signs country lost
the picture kept
come back again
once was a fall of what
now the wind stands in
the quoll man comes
later yet a moon
each place marked by echo
and why are they pursued
the woman and the child?
a theft or the attempt
you can still hear the spear
like a fact of the place
makes sun of what will shine
it’s all this from forgetting
just have to know how to look
