Aborigines have no word for time
Time out of time.
The past,present and future co exist
Rocks and trees and people are as one
Their mental map lays out the sacred places,
Cherished is their place of birth
where their first kick puts them on that map
Telling stories of how the earth was made
Bonds the group together with the land.
The linear sword now cuts ever forward through the seconds
Leaving the memories of the rocks and trees to turn to stone
