No matter how humanely done
It still means enslaving sentient creatures
And nature suffering, soon gone
Under violent monocultures
At least, it needs to shrink — before it’s none
Animal Production
Phenomena
Just look around you
And it will astound you
~ Not my words, nor only the cosmos
A solar or lunar eclipse is an amazing view
Amazing already is daily rice & hoummos
Food Chain, Plumbing & Energy Network
Personally, I’ve always been on the network
But, I’ve learned, that also in white western communities
— Forgive the wording — many have to build their own work

#Coffee ☕🤎

We now see theft taking pleasure
Of others’ crop ~ it’s treacherous

Passion, dishonesty, greed are at stake
Those are mostly no job for the cops
A Gluten Word
Care for some kitchen time saving?
Make yourself an almond pudding
Instead of a sandwich
It’s an easy, energizing switch
Honey
I read recently
We should abstain from honey
Until the bee population
Is able to achieve some restauration

Urban Farming
All in, I’m glad I take part
It is more challenging than foreseen
Human greed & poor soil I’ve seen
Yet, it’s won its place in my heart
Urban Wildlife
A fat, screeming woodpecker baby
Keeps my sister awake at night
The parents fly in & out to feed, for all to see
A willow tree in a garden is a safe place of might
Monday Night
There’s a shimmer of light
It’s a crisp, warm night
Scent of hay on the air
After a day of strong Sun glare
