Scrub Poem by Douglas Scotney
Scrub
Of two shadeless, shop-less seaside towns,
Carrickalinga could afford to ignore
the visitor even more
by keeping the scrub between it and the shore
for the visitor's inevitable needs,
but Myponga Beach was scrub-less,
couldn't afford to ignore its senses,
and was forced to install
public conveni-ences.
