busting out

so,

after crossing the specific ocean i enter australian waters
rickety boat, lucky i made it

then, i spend 5 months in a 4.5 star hotel in brisbane, finally to be shipped out in the middle of nowhere

enter middle of nowhere

here i am in the middle of nowhere, sharing quaters segregated with those of another race
my children play with their children in the dusty grounds
security guards dubbed minders play along when they are not sleeping
not that often but often enough to get in some volley ball

i whisper into one of my children;s ears
off my child goes to a group of segregated minors
blood flies in the air
mixing, eventually with the dirt lay about

this is now my reason, my excuse to jump in
venting my racial obligations to my fellows captains
segregate my segregation
my wife looks on in horror and my daughter runs to the trees

i've journyed thousands of miles to this continent, to escape race wars
only to find myself fueling fires of my own

how shall i adjust to the rest of the world of oz?
the largest multi-cultural society rest upon the sea
and i can't even share my dog box with 48 people of a different race

what the fuck
disgusted
