 * Indigenous Aboriginal texts and links **

I need a bouquet of words today

to bind my heart

in interplay

To strengthen my will

to grind to grist

to lighten the dark

and the shrouded mist

to remove the mask

unclench the fist

To better the world

For tomorrow. **Jack Davies** It is recommended that when you study Aboriginal texts that you do so in conjunction with a range of multicultural texts. Focus on concepts such as:
 * Narrative Voice
 * Cultural perspectives
 * Imagery
 * Contextualisation
 * Representation
 * Perception
