"waitangi" poems - Hello Poetry

a thrill to my bones a stud in my nose a piano jam he can't eat ham sometimes it rules believers are fools a religious twist i'm an anarchist we stopped making sense despite our diligence the phone rings your manner stings where are you now? i've searched every cloud it's blue, it's close the cat sleeps in boats scotch on the rocks it can't read clocks we ride, we shake the mug is at stake "wine and dine" "me and mine" the future holds a sadness untold the explorer naps for sheets: his maps the falcon clutches it is what it is celebrate Waitangi Day a sea away or maybe three I don't know. This stopped making sense to me. break the form glue it with salt heart smart cookies 1 cup dried cherries i need you more she needs it now it's busy still hopping on clouds i searched and searched to no avail. the hungry husky barks and wails.

We can change history miss Clarke, it is easy, just re-write the lies your historians wrote about the early settlers in New Zealand, which if you had any respect for, it would be called Aotearoa, the official Maori name. Tell the world about your nations attempt to eradicate native Maori and what is written at the base of the Obelisk on One Tree Hill by Sir John Logan Campbell. *Laura Clarke is the British high commissioner to New Zealand <> Campbell, like many European New Zealanders of his generation, had expected that Māori would gradually die out and that an impressive memorial would be a most fitting symbol to perpetuate their memory.[19] By the 1930s this had obviously not happened, and some considered the term "memorial" was inappropriate with many Māori objecting to its use. During construction of the obelisk, a suggestion was made that it should be described as a centennial tower to mark the centennial year of the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi and not a memorial.[19] https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/jan/02/heres-why-the-uk-wants-to-strengthen-its-relationship-with-new-zealand-maori Dom Felice Vaggioli The Italian priest who's book on New Zealand was banned by Queen Victoria.
