Sad joke on a Marae

Hi my name is Lyla, and in my English we are doing a poem called "Sad joke on a Marae."

The poem is written by Apirana Taylor and it is about a guy called Tu, he grew up not knowing really about his culture. He said in the poem that jail was his home and the only Maori he knew was Tihei Mauriora.

Te Tiriti part 2

 Personally I think the Queen is a shady shark for making the British steal land from the Maori. I think the British lied to the Maori to get them to sign the Tiriti. They may have  translated it incorrectly on purpose.   The reason for this is because they did not want the Maori chiefs to be aware that they would lose Maori sovereignty and self governance.
