Poems in The Canberra Times
The Canberra Times newspaper published two tanka by Andrew on 24 March 2012. Under the overarching heading “Outback Eagles”, the first tanka is titled “Prey”, while the second is titled “Poise”. The second is reproduced below:
2. Pose
.
A wedgetail eagle
on a kangaroo carcass
beside the highway
strikes up a majestic pose
as if it had made the kill.
