The City of Serial Killers

Holding gaze with 600 white women

Dressed in fine fabrics

Black and white

‘Meet the colonisers!’

The state library invites

Responsible

(no doubt)

For the murder of Kaurna Kin

Theft of land, children torn from parents arms

Recipients of stolen wealth

Sent from the motherland

I decline!

I am quite busy

Becoming ‘acquainted’ with the new.

Descendants of frontier violence

Defenders of statues

In loving memory

Of thieves, and queens,

Behold the glory of genocide

Stone conveniently hides

Red blood on white hands

I cannot unsee

The Truth

So addicted to your colonial identity

I know radelaide

What I mean to you
