Revolutions
The first few pages show a graphic timeline of revolutions across the world. It almost made me want to take up on the offer of keeping the book.
Stirrings on Occupy Wall Street on the logistics and how people decided to occupy makes you feel the throb and identify yourself as one of the carrier in the people microphone.

Death and Destiny
Dante through Hell
If we are going to the face the mound
of food we wasted in after life
and the karma we created
is it the inverse of this life?
What you didnt do and
should have done
haunts you for later
The time you need to live
exponentially falls down
with good deeds.
The search for origins in the twentieth-cenury long poem
But Destiny, the span of life
- antonym of origin too
is our mystery.
Words have words as origin
They should end too in words
that they are replaced with
During Moth week, Moth is exalted as a food source for the bats
Bats as the destroyer of corn-ear and arrmy-worm moths
( Cheers for Bats and referenced in The End of Night by Paul Bogard - pg 147)
Sunflower from the pot, a fathers day gift
now gleams
The shell of a seed keeps the inside from drying
from sun
