The Red Centre Collective 7

Tennant Creek I

i.
roadhouse: a dress code,
a time to buy alcohol
rules of engagement

ii.
cash spent on junk food
essentials bought on lay-by
purchasing power

iii.
up here the police
are a law unto themselves
but don’t quote me

iv.
against setting sun
silhouette of shamelessness
night can’t come too soon

v.
stock standard menu
dinner at the RSL*
standard clientele

*Returned and Services League
