NDIS talk in the Chicken Shop

 Funny, some bloke in a chicken shop yesterday was talking to me about ‘the problem of the NDIS’ yesterday.

I thought to myself I hadn’t heard THIS before?


Strange it had never crossed my mind.


Then today, I thought I’d check if Andrew Bolt had launched an attack?,

And sure enough,

It’s a Sky News beat up.


Don’t worry about the Multinationals/Mining/Food Companies paying zero tax on their billion dollar profits - raping the land, destroying sacred sites, enslaving the 3rd World,

Let’s us lowering middle class

Pick on the vulnerable and poor for a bit of help paying the groceries.


I guess people these days are basically parrots for algorithms designed by trillion dollar tech giants to divide us and rule/conquer.


As Bob Marley put it on the greatest political music album of all time ‘Survival’:


“They don’t want to see us unite,

All they want us to do is

Keep on fussing and fighting;

They don’t want to see us live together,

All they want us to do is

Keep on killing one another.”


As Bob would also like me to say, I’m sure:


One Love.

“I didn’t know!”

  “I didn’t know!”   Don’t get me wrong In a Two Party preferred system  I have no choice but to give preferences to Labor The Coalition are scum But Jacinta Allen, Victorian Premier Claimed in a Truth Telling Commission that she never knew about massacres Of Indigenous people in the state She’d never looked up The history of her country The history of the state she leads She’s Premier! She leads a department that ‘manages Indigenous affairs’ We are currently in the process of negotiating a Treaty What did she think happened to all the Aboriginal people?! They went up to live up the Magic Faraway Tree? “No one told me!” No one ever told me either I fuckin researched It was really easy Took 10 minutes There’s this new thing called the Internet & you search stuff up Like History A subject no longer taught in many schools past year 7 I deduced a lot from observing the place & how allergic we are of looking at ourselves ...

Though it made me a poet

Though it made me a poet   This is a superior microwave to the last if  everything has to be a competition I guess it does! In the Kafkaesque vortex Where one is trying merely to ask a question Instead one is sold something I’m monastic or have acute anxiety Anxiety is pretty cute Like a decapitated bleeding brain Covered in snails turned carnivore By the wrack & ruin of a child’s innocence The fist in the sister’s face The knife in the wall Did I imagine the latter, dream it or see it? Who threw it? Must have been the bowie Still life goes on So I went to school the next morning & got my mouth taped up For being a chatterbox Such is the life of a privileged 5 year old It made me a poet     Published & Copyright Malachi Doyle 2025.  

‘The Garden of Love’

  ‘The Garden of Love’ (after William Blake)   Some young punk Tryin to be ‘hard’ Pussyole! with his mate Said “no flowers!” I was holding some wildflowers To put in my vase at the apartment I asked him “why not?” He said nothing That’s right keep walking bish! To bloodclot! I don’t walk around defensive So I’m not quick to attack I’d rather they think about it themselves ‘Without flowers there is no life’ He dreams Try that on for size ‘You say “no!” to flowers & you say “no!” to life’ Echoed on the wind 'You can’t eat money!' Unity & Devision He hears across the wires 'Not that way!... ... why have you forsaken us?' He feels the ancestors   & again I am reminded of Blake’s ‘The Garden of Love’*   Published & Copyright Malachi Doyle 2025.   * The Garden of Love By  William Blake I went to the Garden of Love, And saw what I never had seen: A Chapel was built in the midst, W...
