new member site heading

May 30th, 2009 by Editor

don’t panic – this is the inner – posting – member site of aucklandpoetry.com – just thought the old seagulls were getting a bit stale – so in the words of Ezra Pound, Make it New – well almost – this is a shot of the Queen Street skyline without the Skytower.  Do comment if you like it or not.  The Editions will continue to have a unique header, but the inner site – we will try and settle on an image for consistency.

Street Dream Can

May 30th, 2009 by Nicholas Alexander

In the street energy is released
hanging in the air the fog moves so slow
It can take the air away
bearing the real names
the only one proven
by real science
only in the city
can they make such claims

the focus of your eye her
hair fake blond and solid
turning the corner
you can see she believes
in her movement and time
only in the city you find
pieces of glass so flat
and final
