The Night Before Christmas By Edgar Allan Poe
On the night before Christmas, alone in my house, 
Sorrow gnawed at my soul, like a ravenous mouse.
Entombed in my blankets, I struggled to sleep,
Ready to snap if I counted more sheep.

I rose at the...

It was just one of those splendid days, which held no excitement;
Moreover it required none, for in its stillness, I was content.

Lying on the forest green grass, luxurious blue skies in my eyes,
Summer winds brought...

But what of the speckled hound in the bin?

than pathological ego-manic fear emanations
about my immediate physical future...

Step out with me,

"Nature yields to artifice,
not artifice to nature."
Iain McGilchrist

Winning yields to lost and last identity,

more ecosystemically robust.

LeftWing values for transparent

yield to RightWing 
nationalistic 
white supremacy,
not artifice to integrity
