Please not the 'The Territory' is pronounced as it is commonly said with 3, not 4 syllables ie. "The Terra-tree" is that right Ross

POLITICS . . . an acrostic
©M Pattie 20120
Passed down through generations, of many a Murri clan
On voting day, twas often heard “Ay, which one Whitlam-man?”
Lingiari in the 60’s, and Labor’s Land Rights Act
Indigenous communities; the ALP they backed
Today in outback Queensland, and throughout The Territory
It seems that credit's run out – for the current ALP
Cos taken long for granted – that demographic class
So no more “Which one Whitlam-man?” It’s bit them on the arse.
