  The Art of Malaka  Malaka (Rise Above 'Em) [Verse 1] Jealous cowards try to control! Mean-spirited cloth – cut from the same! Old comments rotting – fourteen years old! Doubling down – you got no shame! [Chorus] Malaka! Malaka! Special Greek word – for scum like you! Malaka! Malaka! Rise above! We're gonna rise above! Vile views – spreading hate and fear! Malaka! Malaka! We ain't taking it – no more! [Verse 2] Who’s next on the list? Indians? Greeks? Vietnamese? Women? Whose next to be cut? Major parties silent – lips sealed tight! Cowards in suits – hiding from the fight! [Chorus] Malaka! Malaka! Pauline and Cory – same rotten core! Malaka! Malaka! Ashamed? You should be ashamed! Hate, division, fear in the air! Malaka! Malaka! We’re calling it out – everywhere! [Bridge] Minorities marginalized – feeling the pain! Unheard, unrepresented – driven insane! This ain’t left or right – it’s decency!

Rapid Creek Tide Out

Image
Trying to make sense of it all When the tide goes out And the rain stops What was once seen is now not what is seen All the way across the expanse To the horizon A revealed beauty That is transient and formed Flowing ebbing and eroding Of continuous loss As present A simulation Creation in place And witnessed by my force in time

From Montpellier Park to the You Yangs

Image
Beautiful sprawling Geelong A veneer of suburbia each and every way And all of that granite just 22ks north east With distinct pyramid like peaks Making the flat plains so much more It has not always been this way Station Peak Flinders Peak A discovering with sheep Reporting that the natives were unwilling to work Waves of squatters drove off custodian resistance Conflict Aboriginal massacres Procedural lack of evidence Enforcement through denial of representation Legitimizing colonial  right of way Never to be officially documented A systemic off the record ‘land grab’ Plunder and claim Victim accounts reduced to word of mouth Forever locked into what can be deemed acceptably plausible Dogs must now be controlled There are walking and trial bike trails Picnic tables and toilet facilities It is challenging and family-friendly This, the now unquestionable modern day Australian landscape
