3.The Town I Loved So Well: Images of Gawler SA. 'Country Show'

III
COUNTRY SHOW
Wind flings
the microphone man's voice
to the fields
and the river's edge
where it seeds
in green nettles
half sunk
a rusting tractor
gathers the disparate voices
of fifty years
its clogged wheels
stop on celebration
of a sideshow piece
for ants and spiders.
