some days
the bunyip
comes
to
rip
tear
and rend
the
dreams
from
your
flesh
and
the
flesh
from
your
soul
somedays
the bunyip
just
comes
and takes
you whole
but most days
he sleeps
in the billabong
everdeep
in the stolen
lives he
has chosen
to keep.

write a poem about
a non creco roman myth.
the bunyip, according to some dreamtime stories
came to take loved ones
in it ferocious jaws back
to the depths of water places.
