                 My Australia


My Australia is a long and winding

Great ocean road, whose every curve

Holds the promise of new delights and insights.

My Australia feels, sounds, smells and 

Tastes of diversity.

Your Australia is white, middle-class

And totally ungroovy.

Your Australia is a straight and narrow

Highway to an old-fashioned, fascist, 

Anal-retentive hell!

My Australia is generous, creative,

Adventurous and psychodelic!

My Australia is rich in ways

You could never understand.

My Australia is this ever changing,

Ever beautiful, 

Great Southern Land!!!


On  the 26th of Jan we celebrated Australia Day... for some people it is an excuse to thump their neanderthal chests and engage in alcohol-fueled, jingoistic behavior!

A pox on all ultranationalist, fascist fools! We need to think of ourselves as EARTHLINGS! NO MORE FLAGS!
