A HABIT OF DEPRAVITY, WE ARE THE GHOSTS

"All the children freed from the orphanage Brutalised neglected and starved to death Let them show you why. Let them show you how the nuns would lie" Was a poem scrawled upon a door on exiting the St John's Orphanage in Goulburn, NSW, Australia in 2017. My camera inexplicably turned off as did my phone which I managed to snap a shot with. There was certainly some activity within these walls. On my return visit recently, the only activity where 3 youths, who claimed 'we are the ghosts'.
