Pete is a poet and songwriter who lives and works on Wurundjeri country Naarm, Australia. His poems have appeared in journals ‘Bystander’, ‘Aedon 5.1’ and in ‘Cordite Poetry Review’ Melbourne Edition. He has a BA with honours in Creative Writing from the University of Melbourne.

All the Hungry Hours is Pete’s first full-length collection of poetry written over a six month period from September 2025 to March 2026. The poems range from the sardonic to the ordinary and surreal, set in chosen vistas of inner Naarm and composed from the perspective of the flaneur. Hours hungry to be writing, for ennui and stimulation, subjects of a hungry imagination.
