Bloom yeast for bread, crush cabbage with summer's kraut — in snow scent the way home.
Each hour after dawn draws on birdsong never heard before you listened.
In my forest bed ear prickled by a spider I must await gone.
"Therefore they who know that enough is enough will always have enough." -Lao Tsu, Tao Te Ching
Let's close this distance, take the space to cast our stones and hands out, embrace.
As a child only the moon stroked my hair the full distance between us.
Out of the smoke my hair down waves of peat dark bar where softness began.
Miracle of flights' uplifting foreborn fallen dreams fleet in my life.
Empty boxes, flour sacks, vials of ink to fill my outbound heart with home.
Done, I looked around, found I'd resurfaced into the unexpected.
"Pie and coffee, please" — and the waitress' sweet toothed smile. "Strawberry shake."
I balk to pluck the best berries birds dash to bits singing, ca–nae–keeeeep!
Wind in trees, big band songs, my own shut eyed sway — slow dancing for this day.
Betide, my heart — the best laid plans lub dub, love — as every wave draws back.
Strength doesn't over react in flex; butterflies shoulder the world's winds.

On the glassy water, having a same dream, rounding wild ducks.
There is nothing in the world that is not mysterious, but the mystery is more evident in certain things than in others: in the sea, in the eyes of the elders, in the color yellow, and in music. - Jorge Luis Borges

I’m enjoying every minute of my children being home. But the feeling of someone looking over my shoulder and feeling they could steal my children from me at any moment even for things like having dirty dishes in the sink is something I have to heal from.
We have just released the #Wetsuwetenstrong Supporter Toolkit. Educate, Agitate, Organize. Share widely. Its not over. unistoten.camp/supportertoolk… #cdnpoli #bcpoli #Indigenous #Wetsuweten #LNG
Yesterday Coastal GasLink contractors illegally bulldozed through one of our traplines. Damage to the trapline is a direct attack on our healing center and the wellness of our Wet'suwet'en people. CGL continues to disrespect our yintah, our culture, and our traditions. #unistoten
1. Michael, 17: I am going 2 do this thread, b/c me and Indigo were the most bullied in school. I am finishing my last year of hs online. I want to talk abt adults seeing White teens like the Covington guys as capable of miraculous change & growth. Give me some time 2 find words.
2. I am a big guy in a chair. I have CP and dyslexia. That's OK, but routinely being called a 'fat Indian f---' and the r-word is not. Last major incident, a MAGA type guy put chewed gum on my wheels. So, I couldn't roll it, innit? And everyone laughed.
3. My mom got all this 'unfortunate incident' 'how can we make it right?' stuff. She said, "My son was physically assulated." They said, "There's no evidence of that." She explained that my chair is part of me, and touching it is touching me. Blank stares.
4. Mom tried to explain the history of anti-Native violence. Their response: "Not all the kids laughing were White." Mom and me: "That's irrelevant." More blank stares. So, they take this one MAGA kid with a record in and talk to him.
