I wrote a poem after hearing about the latest decision on Bulga - it also applies to many other mining companies.
Go ahead, we dare you
We will make it hard
By holding up your work
If you drop your guard
Go ahead, we dare you
You’ll soon learn our goal
To make your dirty diggings
The most expensive coal
Go ahead, we dare you
As together we will stand
To make your fragile share price
The cheapest in the land
Go ahead, we dare you
We’ll put out the call
To banks and all investors
Ensuring that you fall
Go ahead, we dare you
We’ll wise up the nation
No coming to your aid
Or giving compensation
Go ahead, we dare you
Watch us rejoice and win
For what you plan to do
Is such a bloody sin.
