Does a man become a revolutionary out of the belief he’s entitled to joy rather than submission?
—The Lacuna, Barbara Kingsolver
Happy Monday
“I’ve just seen a face, I can’t forget the time or place where we just met.”
MAD GIRL’S LOVE SONG
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)God topples from the sky, hell’s fires fade:
Exit seraphim and Satan’s men:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.I fancied you’d return the way you said,
But I grow old and I forget your name.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)I should have loved a thunderbird instead;
At least when spring comes they roar back again.
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)Sylvia Plath

I want this life
“I’m also blown away,” she goes on, “by the tremendous close-working relationship between people and animals. They raise them, breed them, graze them, take care of them, eat and them and use every part of them. They have so much respect for them and realize their dependance on them. We don’t have that relationship. We just eat them. I’m really struck by the fact that we’ve almost completely lost that in our culture. I admire and love that Heifer honors that part so deeply.”
