  • Vote Green, Peace, Flower by Shawna Cole

    The Green Party of New York State regained automatic ballot status by getting over 50,000 votes for their Governor candidate in 2010. Look for us soon on your voter registration form and your ballot.

    Gaining ballot status enables the Green Party to run more peace candidates, more single-payer candidates, more anti-fracking candidates, and more sustainable energy candidates.

    The last time that the Green Party of New York State had ballot status it set the record for running the most Green candidates of any state.

    The Green Party is an alternative party to the Democrats and Republicans. The four pillars of the Green Party are: Nonviolence/Peace; Grassroots Democracy; Social and Economic Justice; and Ecological Wisdom.

goddess of light

in a world splashed with supermarket colors
she rises above the sand in bands of black and white
drawing upon a history of her own ship wrecks
day and night she warns of treacherous passages

stand next to her and you can hear the crash
of waves Walt Whitman heard from every point
of Paumanok before we jammed our ears
with car engines, weed whackers and buzzing beepers

her body echoes with the flute
of childhood chants and pirate shanties
drifting from the windows of her platinum crown
as antlers rise above the reeds and dwarf pines
