belong and belonging is a natural need‚ as stated by “Maslow’s hierarchy of needs”. So to achieve this natural feeling of belonging‚ people strive to find their sense of place in the world. In Peter Skrzynecki’s “Migrant Hostel” the whole theme of the poem is people thrown into this hostel searching for their own nationalities “like a homing pigeon” to find a sense of place in that camp‚ Australia as a nation‚ and the whole world. They are searching for belonging. In the song “How to make gravy”

That same feeling of lack of belonging and lack
