Another Life

by

Squinting.
Another life
through the cracks.

another crack in the boat
At the end of the V-wall in Nambucca Heads stands a piece of the bow (the pointy bit) of an old boat or small metal ship. It stands like an art installation, cracks hand cut in the top allowing the dunes and their banksia covers to peep through from the other side. Like a parallel universe.
Sharing stories of real people, everyday magic, and the places I held my breath as a child.
