About
Antonyms of Trust is a poem about water; about how our water is being stolen and degraded, about the many New Zealand rivers with signs saying "do not swim – may cause illness" or the dry riverbeds surrounded by farmland with constantly pumping pivot irrigators. "Once upon a better time, the poor man's wine flowed beneath our feet and bubbled up between the streets..."
