Let us acknowledge this: One day there will be no more looking away. Love accordingly.

To See Beyond

 The lost paradise is the place we destroy. The genocidal realtors will advertise Gaza as an Airbnb paradise. The ghosts of paradise are so numerous they're unaccountable. 

 Maybe it wasn't my last swim, just because the radiator pinged. I touched the rocks below and this pipe with round stone came into my right hand. It echoed my egg head. I think I may have seen it before on shore, I may have even put the stone in the pipe. Of course it wasn't my last swim. It was just a memory rehearsal. I'll be swimming forever.

 The radiator just started pinging. The coyotes are quiet, and may have moved to another den. Was yesterday my last swim? I was awake at 4am thinking about the technological takeover. My phone feels alien.

The little swamp was singing with life, but it was a melancholy sound, as the season changes. I said You're so beautiful to the grasshopper, and then noticed the missing back leg. The hopper was just waiting. There were marches all over the world for Palestine. Gaza has been almost completely destroyed and still there are many people there, and the killing continues. Tomorrow the regime here is scheduled to kill thousands of saguaros for the killing regime's border wall, on indigenous peoples day.

Temenos. A word used by the early Greeks to define a sacred precinct

(i.e. a temple) within which a god’s presence can be felt.

Yes, there are dark forces trying to change all of reality. [  ] You can't change all of reality, but you can clear a space for the spirit and the mind to dwell.

Memory Rehearsal

 Both parties are genocidal.
