In And Out Australia



'Currency',
meaning 'those Australians born here',
was once in; now's out.
Those might now be Skippers or Go To-ers:
going to or skipping to
Question 7 on the Census.

'No worries' came in,
gained currency;
'It's all good'
wedged in too;
'All smiles', 'No negs'
might wedge next:
all four blat- and flagrantly
and patently untrue.
