\n<\/span>Stella wants to leave yesterday
\nget to her grandparents
\n& bunker down till tomorrow never<\/p>\n
\ni need to find petrol possibly
\na spark plug, battery,\u00a0new tires
\n& much more for the cruiser<\/p>\n
\nto find what we need fast
\ndespite the drones criss-crossing
\nthe skies between the scrapers<\/p>\n
\ndrags his shadow toward us
\nstarts filling our heads with hope
\nrumours of things too flawless for truth<\/p>\n
\npossibilities of protection
\n<\/span>bee propolis & alpaca antibodies
\n& a safe haven in Tassie<\/p>\n
\nacross the country
\nthere are more survivors
\nthan we\u2019d imagined<\/p>\n
\nsuddenly i am the one\u00a0 <\/span>spruiking flight<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
