Ode to Carrot

"There will come a day when a carrot, freshly observed, will spark a revolution." -Paul Cezanne, Painter

Here is the combination of my thoughts
-Morning extract of Eckarte Tolle philosophies
-The film Beautiful Truth
-Ever-confusing love interests
-Finding the approximate frost dates in Missoula, Montana and when to plant shit
-Triatholon outside the window
-Collards growing on my side of the window (in non-recycled containers)
-A soils class with a test on Tuesday
-Stress-ridden encounters with compadres in the 1,000 New Gardens campaign
-Manure collection tomorrow with my mother.
-Lucid dreaming is mind boggling, but the idea of never gardening with Kim (but instead reading her blogs about guerrila gardenin' and her inbox messages of farming plans) is simply unexplainable.

These are things that compose me right now. This is me and I embrace it with a little Jimmy Cliff and the song "Just Another Dub." These things and others contribute to my belief that sooner or later (and whenever the time comes) Possum and I should start a commune where either everyone owns everything or no one owns anything (leanin' towards the latter). We might have to move out of Montana to do it. But I am dedicated to the idea.

I don't care much for the internet, but I feel like Carrot and I have a good connection and I'm not afraid to put that in HTML. Why should anyone be afraid to express their emotions? I'm bloated when I don't.

and share your sentiments about the lovely Carrot. She has no idea how awesome she is. She is like a pixie who thinks she is human, and doesn't realize she has wings. She doesn't understand how her pixie dust transforms the picture of our world for all who witness it. I really hope I have the pleasure of meeting her someday.

If you ever find yourself in that little utopia, please let me know. I will be happy to join you.

If you like this post, please tip me. All tips will be forwarded to ProgressiveU.org. Keep the site alive!
