New poem in Denizen’s Digest!

My new poem ‘We’ll show the world’ is out now in Denizen’s Digest – Issue 3: Expo 2088!

As an Expo ‘88 enthusiast, I was super excited to have my poem chosen to be part of this excellent local zine. 

Grab yourself a copy!

The Denizen’s Digest – a weird anthology by the Brisbane bizarre. The digest is a 60 page journey through locally created genre fiction, poetry, creative non-fic and more. 

Curated by Netherworld denizens Tim Sifontes-Holzberger and Mitch Wilkins, the third-issue’s theme is ‘Expo 2088.’

Photo of the first stanzas of the poem ‘We’ll show the world’ featured in Denizen’s Digest. The text reads ‘WE'LL SHOW THE WORLD BY RAE WHITE. Self-drive dodgems cruise through Brissie's sunny sky. Marching band kangaroos levitate above rivers' glinting mock-blue surface. 1988's pink sub memorialised as pink mega-drone loop-the-looping over whooping crowds. Jacarandas luminous like stars their purple petals bred to mimic fireflies. Yellow-clad robot hostesses roam the teeming grounds, demeanour more cop than cooperative.’
