Ayers Rock is eternal and it attracts me like a magnet to go and climb it.I don't think Les Murray's poem does it justice though.

The layland brothers built a service area north of Sydney in the shape of Ayers Rock, seems to me the meagrely has. More to do with that place than Ularu tha has a very majestic and spiritual aura, The rock service station burned to the ground in 2018 I think, Ularu goes on for ever

I had been to Down Under several times included Ayers Rock. I know many things about Ayers Rock's historical and cultural background. You have created a good poem. Congratulations as the Modern Poem Of the Day! Ayers Rock is The Holy Place for the Original inhabitants, and inhabited this place since milliard years ago. They were killed and slaughtered by the colonists, now they own Uluru again as decided by the Australian Gov. A 10+

The sad desecration of a sacred place is well portrayed.
