time
(blog entry)
my time has been colonized by school, and work,
but tonight, I made soup and salve.
I jarred the dill I'd been drying, and brought in rosehips.
I laid the plants-in-their-pots along the counter.
I took some time to attend to the physical.
I...

(blog entry)
Ten.
One to write the lightbulb a letter requesting that it change.
Four to circulate online petitions.
One to file a lawsuit demanding it change.
One to send the lightbulb lovingkindness™, knowing that this is the only way real change occ...

Keona has a sweet little business called Ki Living Art which designs and installs modern plant decor.
We both consider ourselves primarily as Earthworkers. We both wish to help Earth heal and survive, to thrive. We both dream of being producers, the gardeners of the raw materials - plants, flowers, soil - we use to make beauty.
The flower and landscape industry, ironically, are so ecologically destructive. It is industry standard to not have an environemental ethic in the North Amer...

the 10-19 show is good, and has a poet(if i was a top-notch poet: oh he's great) somewhere around 40: mins deep in the show. the whole thing, as you can imagine, is worth the listen.

Our daily acts, how we spend our time, our pra...

One to write the lightbulb a letter requesting that it change.
Four to circulate online petitions.
One to file a lawsuit demanding it change.
One to send the lightbulb lovingkindness™, knowing that this is the only way real change occurs. One to accept the lightbulb precisely the way it is, clear in the knowledge that to not accept another is to do great harm to oneself.
One to write a book about how and why the lightbulb needs to change.

which differentiates Deconstructionist Postmodernism from Ecological Postmodernism;
have read The Web of Life, by Fritof Capra, which is all about systems theory.
Throughout these books I hear the cross references of self-reflexivity...
