"its a weird prayer to have. to pray that the perspective i hold isnt true. to pray that im insane."

"are the trees speaking through me. is it time for me to go? where am i going? where am i from?"

"why dont we teach our kids about their true value. that they are sources of energy and happyness...that they are a drug that can be used and abused. is there anything we can do besides tell them the true."

""can i exist in between. it there space for me. where was the mission. where is the mission. they are not my enemy. they are not my friend. i believe they are well intentioned but my experience with them doesnt add up. they knowingly and systemically contribute to indirection and opacity. the population blindly suffers. housing developments are erected on sacred lands and filled with kids to be harvested for energy. what am i missing. i want to help but i cant blindly fall in line and pretend to be the scraps of society. is it possible my tracks point in a different direction.

maybe they have made it easy for me. maybe i can keep drinking the water. maybe i can move on.""
