  8. Bred in South Auckland – Glenn Colquhoun previously published in The Art of Walking Upright (Steele Roberts, 1999) I drive a car that is falling apart. There is a bog in the body. There is rust in the doors. Occasionally it does not have a warrant. Sometimes I sleep in large rooms full of people. I eat too much fried bread. I am late to meetings. I go to housie. My nose is flat. I say Raw-tore-loo-uh. Some people think I am a bloody maori,

  9. I have been to university. I have a student loan. I photocopy my tax returns. Most mornings I read the newspaper. I make lists of things I have to do and like to cross them off. I cut apples into quarters before I eat them, Then I cut the pips out. I put my name on things. I listen to talkback radio. I use EFTPOS. Some people think I am a typical pakeha.

  10. Last week I drove into a red light, I did not slow down at a compulsory stop, I changed lanes on the motorway and did not use my indicator. When I was a boy I went to see Enter the Dragon, I took one lesson in kung fu. My parents made me do my homework. My brother gave me chinese burns. I like beef and pork flavoured two minute noodles. I light incense when the house smells. Once I dug a garden. Some people think I am a blasted asian.

  11. When I was a boy I learned to swear in Samoan. I went to school in Mangere. I played rugby in bare feet, Sometimes I shop at the Otara markets. My family come from overseas. I used to work in a factory. Once I helped cook an umu. When it is summer I wear a lavalava. I drink pineapple juice. I like to eat corned beef. Some people think I must be a flaming coconut. I think I am the luckiest mongrel I know.
