At the bus shelter
on Middle Swan
Road, parenthesised
by fig tree
branches,
the private school
girl – all hairspill,
chequered dress pleats
pressed –
leans towards
the youth
in orange
high-viz vest,
Rossi workboots
tightlaced, and
speeding cars
are silenced,
cease to exist: the
couple
are everything;
distilled
in
this
{captured}
moment, here
now
.
