At Arthur River on the West Coast of Tasmania, Australia is a Poem written by Brian Inder (1930-2019) referring to the timeless and wild nature of the coastline at Arthur River which is regularly lashed by the gales of the Roaring Forties.
Brian Inder established one of the largest Maze complex in the World at his property near Lake Barrington called Village of Lower Crackpot, Tasmazia which still operates today and is a Tourist Attraction in that area. The village consists of many small building from all over the world.
Brian was an instigator of the murals at Sheffield [ here ] when the town was in decline some years back.
The poem written by Brian is displayed at Arthur River over looking the Southern Ocean and is itself a tourist attraction.
1st photo is the walk to that lookout, then the poem along with the views.
Took the photo below with my big lens without a tripod. Photo below you can just see it in the ocean.
