(I wrote the following ranting this past weekend in our “hut” at Wara-guma. I was preparing for a meeting of the local 8 clans to discuss the setting up of a local Association / Cooperative. At the end of a 30 min presentation I read it out to the group).

The pigs squeal,
the river flows,
people work their gardens…
Kaubasis.

Mangiro Junction,
Yondum and Kau,
Waraguma and beyond…
Kaubasis.

Diganil, Pene
and Kumogogo,
a simple life…
Kaubasis.

Humanity,
love and compassion,
the old ways…
Kaubasis.

White man,
change,
development and confusion…
Kaubasis.

Where to from here?
How to from here?
People from Kaubasis…
Dispela chois em i bilong yumi.
