Sambo on Mer

Terra nullius
Like hell
Years
Before Mr Cook
And
Some British flag
Did my people roam?
Or
My name is not Koiki
King of Murray (Mir)
A rock or
A pile of stones
On limits
Tested
Had legal reason
And proof
Of my peoples boundaries
An ownership
Way before time
And
In a white mans court
Therein lies a truth
Therein lies
A native title
Therein lies
Justice
