Brisbane, Queensland, Australia

   Take pride in your stride.
Stand tall and preside
Over street-corner crossings
Where millions of Aussies
With satchel and sack
Rush to get back
To work on the hour.
   The sculpture presiding
The figure that's striding
Has an ego inflated,
A gait formulated,
To bump others aside
No pretense implied.
[2006]
