Now we have to change all our words around. I never thought of Peace as a word that was moveable. All our words have been shifted by Consumerism and Militarism.

We face a wall of riot police, standing there in the street. Of course, they create the absence of a safe passage through their wall. We can’t march that way. There is no soft door in their ranks. None of these folks want to talk, and as we try to engage their eyes somewhere deep […]

Thinking About The G20 Meeting In Pittsburgh The nation-states act like adolescents. Every diplomatic vowel that comes from an open mouth has the shout of peace in it, but the leaders can’t hear this. Are the ministers jealous of peace?
