hey 'hopper, only found this now and it's so very, very touching, a text with streaks of prayer, poetry and lament. big TQ for sharing! damaged as a child (abusive mother) my BFF has become a heck of a guitar player, feeling safe only behind his Epiphone or Gibson J-160E. meanwhile you're doing great work for your substack-audience, be well!
This is grounded and sensitive writing. This crash of our civilizations is nothing new, unfortunately. I am from San Francisco, now living in Tennessee. What has happened to California is tragic. We all feel as if we are imprisoned because we are. Human beings are what is important and not these nation states all selling "security" in exchange for freedom and the importance of the individual.
Made me cry. I hope your mom is with Goddess now. Tyranny is worldwide now. Nowhere to go but here. We must fight for freedom where we are now, unfortunately.
Gut wrenching. Magnificent. What a masterpiece.
You make me really feel sad for you & I think you should try to get to your Motherland & at least give it a try !
All the best to you , most times I think you are quite funny !

Thank you so much Mary-Lou
I am crying. I wish I could have been your foster mother.
Very beautiful and moving. Truth.

"so i can remember how beautiful your smile used to be before America took it away." -
That's exactly how I feel.
Hit me right there. (Touches fist to heart)
This is heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time. God's watching over you, Grasshopper. Even if it seems he isn't. Please, take care of yourself.

I wish you all the best.
