i ask the mailman if he knows about save the midway. hand him a sticker. he says he never heard of it, the midway or the petition. i explain it's a plan to take public parkland for private enterprise. he's surprised, but not bothered. he says, you want this back? that's yours i say, i hope you will go and look and sign. oh, i can't sign nothin political he says, i'm jehovah's witness. say what? well, it's not political i say, it's about saving our park. blah blah blah, i hear in his head.
i walk down the gangway mentally rubbing my head. i know one thing, i wouldn't sign as witness to jehovah, so tit for a tat, i reckon, but don't come knocking round my door, les you got a xmus present, gnome sane. 
then i thought, do jehovah's vote? or is that political? do they hafta pay taxes? politics is gonna get you no matter what you call what you is. you cant hide under jehovah's robes or even less on the res, gnome sane.
then i'm reminded the proprietor of open produce wouldn't display the sanctuary city sticker cuz it was also political. it's a funny notion in an open society, people afraid of being political, leaving political bidness wide open to the thugs. 
i can't blame a body being apolitical, not voting, i always vote i abstain myself. but shit fire, one thing i cannot abstain from is green open space. keep your corrupt society, just let us have some space to do some good in.
