Middle of thing

Somewhere in hurstville

The reason I photograph a mailbox
is that it is not merely an object,
but a point where two worlds briefly overlap.

Between the street and the home,
between outside and inside,
it stands quietly
on that thin line where footsteps pause.

Its surface faces the street,
yet what it receives
always flows inward.

With a face turned outward
and a purpose turned inward,
the mailbox
belongs fully to neither side.

So it feels less like an object
and more like a state of being—

between passing and staying,
between sending and arriving,
existing precisely
in the middle of things.

When was the last time
you opened your mailbox?

In an age where waiting has faded,
when did you last look into
that small opening
still holding the shape of anticipation?
