Fancy shirts are not

Made for construction arms

Bulging sausage case. 

Black Walnut Hull Tincture

Made some tincture tonight from fresh black walnut hulls in their green stage. Already turning a neat green color. Going to be nice to have this on hand for parasites on or in people or critters. We harvested these walnuts from trees on our farm. In the future we would like to harvest the nuts from Juglans Nigra. Made sure to wear gloves while processing so as to not stain my hands.

Farmer’s market do

Seem to make community

But do they profit?

On change

Any movement both

Politics and religion

Is based on changing
Why so often then

Do we refuse to believe

That people can change?
We tether people

To their past, good or bad, and

Fail to see present
Perhaps some do not

Change because they cant see that

narrative exists
If we hope for a

Better world, we hope for change

In the world’s people

Little baby bowlegs in Wrangler jeans are just fantastic.

If all the toys are

Safe how will the kids ever
