A Playful Panda of a Poem

She glows and she glitters

from sunset to sunrise

she is an all night lady

with tachycardic eyes






She loves the crickets of Quorrobolong





the whimsy of the wind





the noisy cross-eyed mynah





the clatter of rubbish bins










She has a tachycardic heart





and  tachycardic toes





and takes herself off





wherever the wild wind blows










She loves the smell of coquetry





the stars, the perfumed black





and when she finally settles, eats





French Fries and Big Macs

      Lol. I just wanted a banal ending to bring  this flight of fancy back to earth; and what a better way to do it than have this magical creature eating fries and a burger at macca’s 🙂

    Congrats on the new blog. Why the change? I looked up tachycardic and ut seems to have to do with an abnormally fast heart rate. I feel like this is a metaphor, this piece. But I am not sure that i fully grasp it.  But as a description of a character who one might imagine to be a giant panda, it is very endearing and delightful.
