We Are Nature The Hawk Reminds Us to Listen There are no coincidences in nature. Only messages for those who still remember how to listen. I drive the forests of Abitibi. The air heavy with stillness. The land ancient, carved by wind, water, and the footsteps of Algonquin

This is absolutely right. We are being poisoned and most of our wheat and maize are GMO and empty of calories and we need a food revolution for a broken food system driven by greed and corruption that makes us sick and clients for related pharmaceutical companies who want us to

Hark thee, Woundedness Industry.
In a fractured world,

Not a monument of conquest,
but a tapestry of memory, breath, and belonging.

Can we pause
and admit we do not know what we are doing?
That we carry more questions than answers?

The Cry of the Soul I am tired. Not the tiredness that sleep can fix, But the exhaustion of a soul that has worn too many masks, Fought too many wars, And forgotten why it picked up the sword. I sit in the dust of memory And ask the ancient questions again: Why am I here?

The Cry of the Soul
I am tired.
Not the tiredness that sleep can fix,
But the exhaustion of a soul that has worn too many masks,
Fought too many wars,
And forgotten why it picked up the sword.
I sit in the dust of memory
And ask the ancient questions again:
Why am I here?

An Armada of Hope For His Holiness the Dalai Lama at 90 What have you to teach us, Hallowed One of the mountain winds, Messenger of snow-born silence, Still point in a spinning world? Ninety cycles of the sun you have witnessed and still you smile. You have endured the theatre

An Armada of Hope
For His Holiness the Dalai Lama at 90
What have you to teach us,
Hallowed One of the mountain winds,
Messenger of snow-born silence,
Still point in a spinning world?
Ninety cycles of the sun you have witnessed 
and still you smile.

Where the Hummingbird Lands This morning, as I bent in prayer and meditation, A hummingbird pierced my veil of shadow. Wings like memory, fast and bright, Beating the silence into light. Eight times it returned, As if to say “Stay. Still. There is a message hidden in your ache.”

Where the Hummingbird Lands
This morning, as I bent in prayer and meditation,
A hummingbird pierced my veil of shadow.
Wings like memory, fast and bright,
Beating the silence into light.
Eight times it returned,

“Stay. Still.
There is a message hidden in your ache.”

I’ve seen culture weaponised. But also culture as refuge, healing, invitation. “Culture is not a prison. It is the meeting of rivers.” Jay Naidoo What’s a tradition that has helped you feel like you belong? #UbuntuVerse #NotJustAPortrait #JayNaidooPoetry #CultureAsBridge

From the Pass Laws of Apartheid Have We Learned Nothing? I remember the dompas. I remember the humiliation. Being stopped. Searched. Questioned. Not because anyone did something wrong but because of the colour of their skin. It was called apartheid. And we vowed - never again.

What Would Mandela Say? He walked out after 27 years behind the concrete veil of prison not with vengeance, but with vision. Not with a sword, but with the stillness of a mountain. He bowed to no one, yet he served everyone. “I have walked that long road to freedom…” he said.

Finally! the City of Johannesburg has opened the Johannesburg library! A huge victory for civil society who were relentless in holding local gov accountable for their dismal service & lackluster approach to solving the cities problems. Long may it's doors and books remain open✊🏾
