all of skyrzfag's poems explore his past culture that he is relunctant to embrace, his future in australia and how he clearly is not secure about himself.

Yes, it would be better to use two related texts. Make sure you have a thesis (you do need one for that question).

My thoughts on the essay question and the concepts:

The search for belonging is essentially the attempt to locate oneself within the world.

To locate, to find where we belong, we must "triangulate" ourselves with respect to who we are (presently), where we come from (the past) and where we wish to go (future).

By accepting one's self, one's past and one's future, we acknowledge and make firm these "reference points" from which we can locate who we are - and ultimately find some sense of belonging.
