The thing with New land is that it must be
forgotten to become new. First there must be the cleansing, as shown here. Then
the world must forget over all those years where rocks and stones and trees are
made into timber and footpaths and i-pads.
Through forging a proper life we
forget that which has come before. And then we are good and well and it is time
to look back on what we have made. We brush the tussock aside and remember the
day in which the trees were felled and the ground tilled. We lift a rock and
marvel at the life beneath it.
This is culture.
This is Pakeha culture.
This is
new New Zealand land.
