Abstract
his racism compels an energy that grows me
a garden his Team Australia digs
my shovel deeper his Northern Territory
Intervention layers my compost-pile higher his
Operation Sovereign Borders pulls my
noxious-weeds faster his Forced Closure of
Remote Aboriginal Communities renders my
pruning-saw blunt and his Climate-
Change Denial distils my rage to
sweat drip soak feed every seed sown
for transformation.
