Bushfire Stories

This is a short monologue dedicated to the Australian bush fires and all of the people and workers in the country.

I wrote these poems as an Aussie farmer during the drought in 2019. 2019 was the last year of the drought, we had already suffered however for 4 years without rain. There were extreme bushfires swallowing the country and even worst dust storms that occurred multiple times a day, it felt there was no escape from the madness that had become our daily lives. These poems were a voice for that frustration and writing it down was my own personal plea of desperation. Right after the draught in 2019 however we got flooding in early 2020, welcomed flooding by most except for those who lost most of there homes and belongs. And well soon after that we had the pandemic hit Australia pretty hard where we went in lock down mid April. Everyday the news spreading so much fear. We were scared to leave our homes. Again I wrote more poetry to cope with the fact that we had just come from one hell the draught to now this new hell the pandemic! It honestly felt like tHe fried would never end. These poems are a representation of that time. I hope you all enjoy.

Saturday February 7th, 2009 is one of the darkest days in Victoria's history. It was the day that raging bushfires swept the Australian state, leaving destruction and loss in their paths. This is the fictional story of a 15 year old girl who had to face the inferno, all on her own.

This is a story dedicated to the black Saturday bush fires in kinglake west, it's only a short story. Enjoy.

A story about the Australian 2020 Megafires. Envisioned through a male character, the reader witnesses and understands the true fears that Australian's felt during this time; just how merciless these flames were; and the masculine pressures to appear brave and placid. On a more personal note, this short story is a reflection of climate anxiety, and how I fear for this summer, next summer, and the summers to come. As this is a nation-wide experience, I feel silly expressing distress when others had it worse. This is that story.

Zahra has experienced fire before but never like this. She must survive Black Summer and hold onto her hope. For her family is crumbling and she's sure that her home will be next.

After summer lightning come the fires... Ken could smell the distinctive scent of burning eucalyptus. Although he was safely inside the house with the windows shut, smoke whispered through air vents and under doors, carried west from the bushfire raging out of control in the hills behind the city.
