sunshine coast

may 10 more sticker mania snapper rocks. overlooked surf collective on the waves parkedup among that landscape of parked cars, patched tarmac and surfers intent on waves. found supporters. fine and dry, my windscreen barely fogged last night. humidity has been so great mould colonised back window. now here's a spot that could use some trees, red earth scraped for unknown purpose, constructing a flat spot perhaps.
may 11 point danger. snapper rocks smoked oyster pasta. humdrone of cars coming in looking for a park. mild day. coluds forming. large flag flying rainbow beach corner unit third floor porch!!!!! i could see the shape of a large cloud on the water. dark and passing by me. then sunshine and calmer.
may 12 brad palmer flags gold coast 100,000 passing per day to fly large for a month!!!!!!!! burgees on three of four fingers southport yc.
may 13 early rise and run morning darkness with great trucks rumbling past, i'm the slowest car on the road. up in the inky blackness heightened and punctuated by headlights. over toll bridge, i'd made it, mellowed north of brissie. contacts and coffee, drifted into mooloolaba 7:15 am for an early walk through holiday breakfasting. later at library still seeking reconnect with suppliers<*#+! then lunch parkup strandside where mudjimba is framed by the step railings. stickered 'life's a campsite' kombi. and so in the afternoon sun shaded by my sarong draped over carly's hatch up i slid in to a kind of nirvana where i could lie and lift an arm to wave flag for passersby. hardly a taker, pleasant but. a moment in a lifetime, a lifetime in a moment. time that elusive substance. never enough, always too much.
