Vicky and I had tea at the Co-op yesterday and saw Sarah Martin working there. She's a twenty something Unity College student who had just come back from Africa where she was visiting her sister who had been there for two years. Sarah herself was working to help stop illegal tree cutting while she was visiting as part of her studies at Unity. I'm wondering why we in this country do not have armies of young men and women who we praise and exhalt over, who are going out into the world and who's purpose is to improve things, help people in non violent ways. Why aren't we calling the Sarah Martins heros, angels, patriots and giving them ticker tape parades upon their return home?
"Message in a Bottle"
“Message in a Bottle” is a collaboration between myself, Kenny Cole, a visual artist, and poet Karin Spitfire. Chapbooks containing ink portraits and the “edited” words and poems of grieving friends and relatives are part of an interactive sculpture on exhibit starting 9/24 at 256 High Street, Belfast, Maine.
