Activism: 101

(April 7, 2011)  activists
would do well

to note that mudslides
presented properly

can ring with poetry

when presented
against narratives

punctuated with

shrill, dull
polemics.

Steve is a composer, writer and accidental activist who loves art, good food and the friendship of his Fortuna neighbors. He also manages the creamery for Cypress Grove Chevre.

Seriously, only a true artist could find poetry in the face of a landslide.

And though I know your bio is intended to squeeze in as much in as few words, I hope it’s not just the friendship of your Fortuna neighbors you love…:)

From one of your more distant fans!!

Fortuna friends are fortunate to have each other even when not in Fortuna.
