Adult beverages provided by Yeo Haus - Port Elliot
Book now if you're keen to come, for the purposes of seating, provision of said beverages & so forth.
I promised at least one funny poem but may have wrangled together an entire comically tinged set. You'll have to find out...

Great fun to spend a Saturday afternoon @SpokenWord_SA hearing some excellent variations on nature #poetry this past weekend. Chuffed that my tangential take on 'human nature' landed well! Thanks Pam Makin for hosting & Ian Gibbons for his excellent pics!

Israel is waging a holocaust in Gaza. Denazification is our only remedy
The deadly ethno-supremacy inherent to Israeli society runs deeper than Netanyahu, Ben Gvir, and Smotrich. It must be confronted at its root.

Australia must be able to speak the truth that we all see with our own eyes.
Otherwise, we lose the most vital part of ourselves. That which empathises with all innocent people and, eventually, when we bury our conscience enough times, our bonds to each other.
I thank and congratulate all who yesterday showed the immense strength of the Australian conscience and urge everyone to join together as a powerful, collective force against all hatred, violence and racism, for equal rights for all, and for Australia as a consistent and powerful actor for a just and peaceful world.

Why it is unarguable that Gaza is a genocide. Simply now beyond doubt, from two of the most rigorous political thinkers I know. It’s a hideous supremacist plan to push all Palestinians out open.spotify.com/episode/6SM…
