where do you live?

coogee

a name taken..

from a local Aboriginal word koojah which means "smelly place"

well lets face it the kids are pretty slack at cleaning up after dinner

and we do eat a lot of seafood.

and since Ive been to japan

and hawaii and sydney

and every fucking place that sells

seaweed salad

Ive wondered just where is that 

green sweet crunchy 

salty delicacy

actually produced

because if you are tuned 

its everywhere,

the fish markets

sushi go rounds

and every japanese restaurant.

and sometimes if you are lucky

you can get it for

$3.50 a serve

although its often

fifty cents more

for the same 

quantity

and if i think about it

perhaps its fate

that I ended up here

in koojah

the smell of kelp washed up on the beach

drying

ahhhhh

home.
