Run On

by Indrani Perera

 

eat the animals

rend the flesh

fierce hunter

run on

 

sing the pain

tell the truth

story teller

run on

 

bend the line

feel the pause

sensitive reader

run on

Indrani lives on Wurrundjeri Country in Naarm (Melbourne, Australia)
and she acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land.
Sovereignty was never ceded and she pays the rent.
