Nga Kupu Waikato: an anthology of Waikato poetry
This is the river
CRYZANTHENUM BOUGANVILLEA CLEMATIS ZINNIA
TOTARA RATA POHUTUKAWA TANGO NEPHRITE PLUM
this is the river that flows through me,
khaki surges whirlpools + splash
rolling sinuous + tensile,
a taniwha breathing fogs + mist
pouring from valleys ignited by tui kotare kakariki + swan
loaded + heaving, stained into ignimbrite + clay,
the colours squeezed kokopu phosphorescent inanga
translucent trout neon arcing a flamenco haka
of petals leaves feathers wing + fin
they dive flick + twist
aerobatic sculptures + putangitangi
trumpeting
WAIKATO WAIKATO WAIKATO
shedding vortices of polarity + discharge
magnetic fields that pulse + kick
electric + luminous.
The Wild Word #36 Its a kind of magic
Watching the sky speak
Open to the world
On the wing of light
