Australia - The Dingo Fence Poem by Paul Warren

Australia - The Dingo Fence



Just outside of Coober Pedy north near the Red Centre
You drive off the Stuart Highway to the Breakaways feature
The Aborigines have camped in this sacred place for thousands of years
The wind whistles through the peaks in an eerie sensation as it appears
And you can drive on through the peaks until you see the fence
That was built to keep the dingo out; for wool and beef defence.

so it's out there, Paul. Last line's a bit wonky. That was built to keep the dingo out; for wool and beef defence.
