phenology II

lilacs re-leaf, re-bloom
in October
hummingbird moths feed,


common lilacs [Syringa vulgaris]
— not cultivars —
in unprecedented re-leaf and re-bloom

She’s un-be-coming a human be-ing

She’s destined to,

we’re destined to, too


no

tell me, explain
what’s happening

as constant witness,

as constant, remote witness

to slaughter,

as constant gardener,

Israel Is A Rogue Terrorist Entity

Israel is a rogue terrorist entity. And it’s coming to a municipality near you by way of dozens of militarized cop cities — pigs trained by the IDF and Unit 8200 — empowered by algorithms and AI analyses — and the never-expiring, always-expanding Patriot Act.
So, you think you’re safe because you’re not in a paramilitary; because you’re a good type of “citizen”?
maybe you think you’ll go abroad, become an ex-pat?
but where to go, American Pariah?
you think you’re safe because
you’re not in the resistance? (yet)
you’re not an activist — against genocide? against environmental and climate destruction? against systemic injustice? (yet, yet, yet)
you’re not hungry or thirsty or homeless? (yet)
your loved one hasn’t been brutalized or executed by police or the national guard? (yet)

We are living in a

Philip K. Dick-ian World.

Zionism is Nazism | Israel’s Holocaust of Gaza

ISRAEL is perpetrating INDISPUTABLE textbook GENOCIDE in GAZA.

ISRAEL is an uncontrollable, gone-rogue nuclear-state that has not abided any UN resolutions for ceasefire or immediate international humanitarian aid delivery.

ISRAEL has either intentionally targeted or effectively admitted that it cannot control its own military troops after the targeted triple strikes on marked/identifiable and IDF pre-approved World Central Kitchen vehicles — killing 7 multi-national humanitarian aid volunteers. Hence, World Central Kitchen is suspending operations in Gaza, and its ships with 240 tons of remaining food on board for Gaza have departed back to Cyprus.

THE UN must deploy peacekeeping forces.

U.S.-controlled NATO sits on its hands while the atrocities in GAZA are in plain sight for everyone with a screen. The whole World is watching an acute HOLOCAUST of PALESTINIAN PEOPLE.

U.S. President Joe BIDEN & U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken unconscionably deny that ISRAEL has committed any WAR CRIMES or CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY — though:

ISRAEL has murdered at least 10,000 PALESTINIAN children in six months’ time.

ISRAEL has murdered at least 9,000 PALESTINIAN women in six months’ time.

ISRAEL has has murdered doctors, nurses, journalists and humanitarian aid workers.

ISRAEL has targeted and destroyed hospitals schools and housing.

ISRAEL has completely destroyed 90% of the hospitals in Gaza.

ISRAEL has committed human horrors — rivaling those of the Nazi SS — at the Al-Shifa Hospital Medical Complex.

ISRAEL is actively and intentionally denying or destroying food aid and destroying fresh water sources and infrastructure. ISRAEL intends to GENOCIDE ONE MILLION PALESTINIAN PEOPLE in GAZA by famine and thirst and denial of medicine and medical and surgical treatment.

ISRAEL has destroyed more than half — possibly up to 80% of structures, infrastructure and land in Gaza. This is a U.S. “Manifest Destiny” playbook dispossession and removal via destruction and genocide. //

U.S. President Joe BIDEN and his administration have forced AMERICANS to directly underwrite this GENOCIDE by using AMERICAN taxpayer dollars to fund ISRAEL’s HOLOCAUST of GAZA with cash and weapons.

an open letter on a 65°f primary election day in Michigan | day 145 of Israel’s acute genocide of the Palestinian People

good afternoon:

i feel like i should have started my heirloom tomato and chiltepin seeds on New Year’s Eve, but i haven’t even ordered or sorted seeds yet;

that I should’ve picked up a bottle of mineral facial sunscreen and given myself a pedicure yesterday;

that the swimsuits overwhelming retail spaces are not for spring breakers and resort goers but for anyone headed to North Avenue Beach in Chicago or Silver Beach in Michigan today;

and that i wish i didn’t know that the Thwaites Glacier is hanging on by fewer and weaker pinning points;

do you respect or even revere military service? i know many of you certainly do/
