K's feedback:

"You have connected the use of emotive language to the theme of loss experienced by the Aborigines. Each of your paragraphs identifies a key aspect of your argument. However, not all of your ideas are tied closely to the examples given in the poem. For example, it's not clear how the depth of the culture is expressed through the statement that "We are the wonder tales". You should also draw a stronger connection between the idea of land and dispossession. It's important to ensure that your reader can easily understand your point of view, but this can be hampered by grammar and spelling issues. There were a few in this paper, which you should address prior to submission."
