I suggest we deal with the Chinese "threat" in the Pacific by matching their military spending. That would mean decreasing ours to about 18% of its current level.

Cleaning up old files and I find this, more pertinent now than ever, Zoe Leonard's 1992 poem "I Want A Dyke For President". When she briefly lived in Australia in the early 1980s, she hung out a lot with me and my girlfriend, she was already an interesting photographer but I never predicted this.
