In Flagstaff Garden’s quiet, watched by stone and leaf,
They stand in measured ranks, adorned with borrowed grief.
Feathers pierce the daylight, masks of ash and bone,
Ancient rites rehearsed where city seeds are sown.
A drumbeat lingers faintly on the Melbourne air
Past and present pausing, solemn, brief, and fair.
