Effectively Dislocating Indigenous Populations Poem by Chris Lane

Dislocating indigenous populations by herding them into refugee camps
within their native homelands has not proved a viable option
when it comes to refugees embracing colonialism

Colonialism in its purest form works best for colonialists
when the indigenous population that has been subjected to occupation
fully accepts the colonists underlining agenda.

A gilded framed canvas wrought by colonists upon which is painted a story fabricated
