Dorothea Mackellar (OBE) will be remembered for “My Country”, as most
Australian school kids have trudged their way through those lines that start with,
“I love a sunburnt country”.
But, she was also interested in art, politics and
in later life, she really got into computer gaming.
She was particularly fond of The Elder Scrolls trilogy. So much so, that with a
very small amount of imagination, she wrote an ode to Skyrim; the third of the games.
I love Bethesda’s construct
A land of stabbing pains
Of see-through mountain ranges
Of shouts and levels gained
I love her many dungeons
Her empty, shallow sea,
Her mutants and programming errors
This RPG for me
