Wild Thriving
The Becoming

When I can’t change the government
I change myself
When the news is bad
I create good news for someone
When “they” profit off our fear
Our disconnection
I connect
I turn “them” off
I go to the library
To the woods
To places that don’t charge me to exist
I invite a friend for tea
I don’t worry about the state of my house as much
I refuse the prison of perfection
And choose the possible 
The imperfect
The progress
The journey
The becoming
