When we gather
there is a glimmer
there is a gravity
a force larger than humanity.
wholeness is a verb
that can be found alone
but fostered best together.
in this climate of change
protest is a prayer
and i’m at the altar of earth’s core
asking for strength to be shared.

To be honest, I haven’t taken to the streets in a while. I’ve been focused on what I can do through and alongsit my art, my care, my community, my practices, my presence…
But there are nation-wide protests tomorrow and I am ready…
You already know the reasons why - and if not, I’ve been really appreciating the “in one sentence - what the fuck just happened today” summaries that tell me what I need to know without bombarbing my nervous system.
If you can, please show up to the nation-wide HANDS OFF protest in your area tomorrow, Saturday, April 5th. (I so meant to send this sooner…)

If you can’t make it, remember prayer is a protest too.
I don’t think prayer has to be religious - reclaim it with what YOU believe in and wish for the world.
