I could tell you of heartbreak, hatred blind, I could tell you of crimes that shame mankind, Of brutal wrong and deeds malign, Of rape and murder, son of mine; But I'll tell instead of brave and fine When lives of black and white entwine And men in brotherhood combine-- This I would tell you, son of mine. Son of Mine, 1960
The poem is about a mother that talks about what she would or would not tell her child. The poem illestrates the discrimination over the Australian Aborginies.
