really? is that really all people want these days?

where are the rest of us

where can i find the rest of us
where ‘all [we] want is’ inseparable
from the loveliness of heart
and spirit and mind and body and soul

‘all i want is’ to intwine with your passions
glance inside you and honor
the purpose you surrender to
what makes life life for you

if that comes with sex and sandwiches, great
if not, even better

i will never forget one of the most
orgasmic, satisfying feelings i’ve ever had—
falling into the universe inside you
and finding myself reflected in those stars we call irises

goodnight

nature is not property.

The rights of nature laws recognize the rights of ecosystems and natural communities to exist, to flourish, to regenerate, and to evolve…nature laws move nature from being considered ‘property’ under the law to being recognized as ‘rights bearing’ under the law.

Existing environmental laws (Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, etc.) treat nature as property, such that the owner of that property effectively has the right to destroy the nature that exists on his property.

Similarly, slaves were treated as property under the law and a slave ‘owner’ had the right to destroy his ‘property.

Our existing structures of environmental law will not allow us to achieve anything close to true sustainability… in its place, we need to drive a fundamentally new legal structure forward.
