Very nice, Gavin. The boundary fence is at once a recognisable Australian image for me, but it also carries global implications. This poem has multiple layers of meaning for me.

Ah, the sunlight glinting off barbed wire, whether for humans or other types of animals. Boundary fence could also mean a neighbour that is not necessarily considerate, but you hope things might change.
