all activism is science fiction.

-Adrienne Marie Brown

1. looking up 
into
the night sky

with its lungs           clean and empty
of light pollution

a million suns
launching me across
space and time
the universe
whispering

that nothing matters
and
everything does

existence
is a miracle
or chance
or a joke

i laugh


harar v.a. hall
(Favourite moments from this world and the next)

you stop

you stop

dreaming

dreaming

when did

when did

and every one gasped with admiration
but never surprise
Nothing horrible happens
You are not taken away
I am not left to die
We take care of each other forever


Leah Lakshami Piepzna-Samrashinha (Crip Infinity)

it would take something otherworldly to achieve more than just surviving this

should we call ourselves extraterrestrials to save the earth of our blood

giving up would be so effortless
so
shall we choose effortful
imagination
creating like gods
with the courage of children

-Kathleen Charles
(8 Reflections on Pleasure and Possibility)

when did

when did

you stop

you stop

as we shape
our reality comes
into alignment
with our dreams

we keep going
we never wake up.
