The Melbourne Divide
Danny McDonald (Perfect Pitch Publishing), 2015
Too thick to drink it
Too thin to plough
It’s the Melbourne divide
You're north or you’re south
The mud and the refuse
God knows what else
It’s not a water supply
Not a picture of health
The history that she holds
The culture, down it flows
But it breaks up the buildings
And it breaks up the streets
Her murky facade
Creates a mystique
Invisible river
Industrial dump
She flows upside down
Chokes Punt Road
The history that she holds
The culture, down it flows
Steady as she goes
The culture, down it flows
