good health
i have had a comfortable life
with middle class privilege
but i have known and seen
bullies in my class
making me stand against it always
they are leading the country now
and are demonstrably showing
brutal intransigent power
over those without citizen identity
because we had wars
in their countries
so they have done nothing more
than seek a better life
who wouldn’t have?
and now they can’t go back
so many people compromised
by oil greed and power avarice
rendered without country
without wealth
without identity
without dignity
these people are no different
in human need
yet
i have place
i have citizen identity
i have freedom

on reading no friend but the mountain
can’t comprehend their disappointment about australia’s election outcome
