Head, Heart And Heat
A brief snippet-image of Australia, a poem of sorts, a spacial vision of a landscape holding life as if suspended in amber, pickled in the aspic of heat and distance and sun and flood. Written and read by Adam Gibson.

Areas of Raised Dust
A poem-vignette musing on the space and heat and lonely stretches of Australia, where urban meets country, where desert meets community, where the dust storms and the gales and the overall weather reaches across and casts the whole country in its searching grip.

A Real Blackout
A "story-poem" about a time when the electricity goes down in an Australian neighbourhood and everyone is left confused. A real blackout, like something from times past, when the electricity grid was shakier and random things happened. Everyone is confused, bewildered - what will happen? Madness? Out-of-controlness? A real blackout, like we used to have.
Written and read by Adam Francis Gibson.

The Shark
A "story-poem" about a small Australian town, a girl who couldn't wait to get out, a big storm that hit, a shark that got washed into a local swimming pool at the height of the storm.
These words are also the lyrics to an Aerial Maps (https://adamfgibson.com/the-aerial-maps/) song, also called 'The Shark'.
Written and read by Adam Francis Gibson.
