This is a shout out to poets artists writers creatives do something!
Bees are life!
Ghosts
There seems to be so many ghosts today
Remembrances of other times
And that fear of war again.
From the Vault
Old stories
Blocked up cellarways
memories stored
family homes destroyed
history forgotten.

Martin Buber, I and Thou

Octavio Paz, Alternating Current
“As a poet I hold the most archaic values on earth ….
“As a poet I hold the most archaic values on earth . . . the fertility of the soil, the magic of animals, the power-vision in solitude, the terrifying initiation and rebirth, the love and ecstasy of the dance, the common work of the tribe.

Gary Snyder.
