The one question I return to: From the center of our vast population can we human beings reach out to the thing that created us? The industrial inebriation of traffic-life, computer-life, and military-life - is so complete. We as the top dog species isolate ourselves from the Earth – just as the Earth makes the effort to talk to us. And oh – it’s trying to get our attention!
Here's a little something from Macrophage, the band I was in 10 years ago, that I finally got around to recording yesterday. I'm using it as the theme song for my forthcoming documentary, Forgiving D.C.
Lyrics:
When I talk about America, you think I'm talking about you
When I talk about America, you think I mean this land too
But this land was here before America
"Banish the word 'struggle' from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.
We are the ones we have been waiting for." — Hopi elders
