How many Hercules will it take
to evacuate the promises we made,
the lies we told,
the hopes we gave
and then denied?
How many Hercules will it take
to lift the despair of a generation,
the dreams of a proud people,
to transport the bodies of the children
and the blood of the martyrs?
How many Hercules will it take
to rescue a single shred
of Australia’s honour?
