You are America, captured by neoliberal techno-fascist colonialism and genocidal bloodlust. 

 

i forgot to say, happy equinox. 

 What's the stupidest thing you've heard so far today?

 I will miss the insects. They make it so good. We don't love the silverfish, but they aren't bad. Olive likes them, and they like her kibble, so she can just wait by her bowl and eat them as they arrive. Some of the outside insects want to come in now as the cold increases. As long as they don't bite us we don't mind. We have to change with the seasons. We need, especially now, to be conscious of life, loving it, we don't know what's coming next. We get seasoned, as long as we live.

Have you seen the caterpillar? 

Uh, no, i don't think so, but it's so cold, I can't quite think, I'm kind of in a state of torpor. I'm just here. 

Ok, thanks for communicating, and good job with the pollinating! 

We do what we can, and we can what we do.

Echo that.

Have you seen the caterpillar? 

I saw the caterpillar, yes, when was it? I lose track of the time, maybe yesterday? It's like a dream here in the garden, we remember, we forget, you know how it is, like a dream. 

The caterpillar was real, though, yesterday and the day before, eating milkweed, pooping. I just hope the caterpillar metamorphosed somehow overnight.

I'm sorry, I'm afraid that hope may be naive. But life goes on.

Oh well, yeah, life goes on. Thank you for being in our garden, and communicating with me.

 Never been to Camp Wandawega, but we got the sheets.
