Penkivil benches
have kisses in their stars
Motel-esque minidoors
for pre-millennial milk
Astroturfed balconies
and it’s yarmulke city
ten synagogues, at least.

Why thank you, David! The photo is of the kitchen bench in my friend’s Bondi flat, on Penkivil St. With my eyesight, it looked to me like the dots making up the stars were tiny crosses x, hence “kisses in their stars”. I like how there’s that dual interpretation available of people kissing on park benches! It never occurred to me before your picture choice at https://skepticskaddish.com/2025/11/17/notes-or-classes/!
