The Princes Highway<br />
Melanie Weckert<br />
The colony was<br />
an evil thing<br />
it snaked along<br />
a poisonous course.<br />
Move aside<br />
we’re coming through!<br />
to multiply<br />
procreate<br />
dominate.<br />
Flinty hooves<br />
ruined soil<br />
ancient bones<br />
Murnong spoilt<br />
its roots exposed.<br />
I hear the sounds<br />
of ancient groans.<br />
Coastal meander<br />
Ant-nest fringed<br />
eucalypts, tree fern<br />
paddocks cleared.<br />
Gurnai to Yuin<br />
Jirribitti Dreaming<br />
the snake must<br />
shed its skin.<br />
