  • SHE BLUSHES

    I can sense the rhythm humming / In a frenzy / All the way down her spine Ring a bell? For those who find these lines strangely familiar, I bet you’d remember the film clip. Who amongst us can’t recall the spectacular “Girls On Film”, hypnotising to my pre-teen self and many of my age group, and still guaranteed to raise a smile at parties…and maybe more than a smile ;) I saw Duran Duran live last night. For those of you asking ‘who?”, please leave the room immediately, and shut the door behind you – I don’t need any smart comments saying they weren’t even born. The 80s were famous for many things – lurid colours, the birth of Goth, fingerless lace gloves, Michael Jackson looking human – but mostly for tacky as hell pop music. And nothing else will get me on the dance floor. I remembered all the lyrics. I remembered copying the hilarious New Romantic dancing, watching their yacht-hopping playboy filmclips on “Countdown”…but most of all, I remembered John Taylor. Their bass player was the first man to ever make make my inner strumpet sit up, and take notice. I swooned over the others – and personally, despite his spectacularly daggy dancing last night, I would still leave room for Simon le Bon – but John Taylor…..oh my lord…..for an 11-year-old, it was a startling awakening. I recall watching him in the “Hungry Like The Wolf” filmclip, bare-chested as he ran through a Sri Lankan marketplace, panting and sweaty, and thinking….hang on…what’s happening to me?! And the child in me started packing up her place at my table, exiting with a wink and a sly “you won’t be needing ME anymore” over her shoulder. You don’t forget that. You don’t forget the freedom and exhilaration that comes from dancing to your favourite band as you straddle the line between child and adult, blissfully unaware that you have to crawl through adolescence to get there, before Duran Duran and Culture Club gave way to The Exploited and Pantera, before wide eyes gave way to a furious scowl. Unfortunately, you also don’t forget the image of Duran Duran in matching shiny suits, standing behind a bank of keyboards like they were channelling Devo, or the sight of their back up singer in a vintage 80s dress made of silver foil, or the choreography that hasn’t changed since then – and really should have. Or looking around at the crowd and having your friend murmur “you realise this is our peer group?” But I don’t think I want to. Now, if anyone hears that Spandau Ballet are touring, can you let me know?

  • This image is a high quality print of an original painting by Tasmanian artist Deborah Conroy.

  • Amidst the green light of sunset and seaspray, they caught the scent of cherries on their tongue, scarlet gloss and juice, filled with the flavour they imagined dirty pretty words like incarnadine to taste of.

  • Drop of water on a flower petal.

  • Apophysis

  • ...”There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance; pray, love, remember. And there is pansies; that’s for thoughts. There’s a daisy, I would give you some violets, but they withered all when my father died…” ~ Ophelia from Shakespeare’s Hamlet

  • The Truth Shall Keep You Chained
    by Noelle S

    My scars are not / What you can see on my wrist / My scars lye internally / On my heart they do exist

    In this world where “they” tell us who to be, we hide our shame untill it eats us from the inside out.
