The environment
For humans is so
Excellent. What sent
Us? The green will know.
The leaf of an elm
Will lean in and say
“I am at the helm!”
And man cuts that day.
But he also plants.
That’s the beauty when
Land is urged and grants
Her might with the pen.
The verdant spaces
Beckon to be sliced
Thin. And the faces
Value what is priced.
They stare like the blind,
Wisdom locked in their
Thoughts that are behind
Green eyes that don’t scare.
To Sky, the earth spends
It’s time offering
Up its dividends.
Man makes green the thing.

Chanda sent home money every two weeks. In a small village in India, she deposited money into the bank account of her aunt and uncle who sent her to live in America. The place seemed so remote, almost cut off from the rest of the country. There, a festival took place where participants hurled cow eliminations at each other. The muddy, mucky sense of it had been known for centuries. Locals tied it to an ancient god who they believed restored people’s health with the cow plops. During the festival, thick patties passed through the air and smushed into the bodies and faces of those rollicking around in the filth.

Autonomy Is The Real Privilege
Good morning, freedom-seekers! Today we’re gonna be looking at autonomy. A strange word, I know; one many would probably look at blankly and run away from on sight. We’re gonna figure out what it actually means, consider how it’s achieved, and decipher just how deeply most of us are tangled up in dependence without realising it.
