Trepidation on this beach
Mires my mood
New Year has many tales to tell
The future a hostage to silicon~
And heavy metals. Nuclear too.

How can we give our children away so cheaply?
We must make our stand here,
at this end of the world.

The Lark

I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can
