Rev. Dr Jason John | Uniting Church Minister Rhi knew all Just out from the city Looking schmick and standing tall Come to give a consultation Do some facilitation For a hundred bucks an hour In this dry, dusty bit of nation. Rhi knew a lot He knew some things better forgot Things others still said a lot In their North Sydney office block Rhi was different, see He stayed a while Driving country miles ‘stead of FIFO from the city Rhi knew a bit Knew a lot of what he knew was shit Because he had ears to hear And eyes to see Things were different in the country. He thought he always knew that ‘cause they all always said that But now he re-knew it Started making compost out of the old shit The consultant now consoled in relationship He heard He saw He smelt and touched and tasted No opportunity wasted Fell in love with the myth of mateship.
