Dingo Attack Quotes

“REAGAN [FIGURE 3]: 5th December 1985
Avondale College, Cooranbong
Dear Mr Tuxworth, Mr Hawke, Prince Charles and Princess Diana,
I can still remember the dingo walking on my chest.
I loved my bubby Azaria and so did Mommy
We need Mummy at home so does Kahlia need a mommy
Can you make them let my mum come home to me
From Reagan”
― Alana Valentine, Letters to Lindy

“Dear Lindy,
Over ten years ago a ten and a half foot Amethystine python tried to take my not quite two year old son from his bed… this weekend I attended a writer’s workshop with… Kate Llewellyn and after reading the enclosed poem she said I MUST send it to you and so here it is…
The Letter I should Have Written to Lindy Chamberlain
I believe you, Lindy,
I know that even now with all that is tamed
the Wild is always near
In the black of night
I lifted my child from his winter bed
only to feel a cold weight, skin to skin
along my length.
Python jaws around my baby’s leg.
Two day’s later on TV,
whodunnit: the Dingo or the Bitch
But I believed you and I wonder
Would they have hissed at me on the steamy courthouse steps:
‘The snake is innocent.”
― Alana Valentine, Letters to Lindy
