Circular Quay was called Warrane by the Gadigal inhabitants, a rich hunting ground and source of fresh water.
Home is an apple, ready meal, water, empty blister pack, a sleeping bag and a sign to remind the inhabitant of location, if not what kind of place this spot is and what was once alive here in Warrane.
The future insists on arriving, the CBD is a construction site, a mass of hoardings advertising a beautiful harbour-scape by an artist courtesy of Brett.
This opportunity is new to me. It is well past the time to hear what we need to hear.
And this marshy land full of game and waterbirds is now reclaimed as a famous tourist landmark with the opera house and bridge and Luna Park.
