Local Poverty and Resistance

Urban myths hold secrets only revealed
by hidden cameras mandated by the state
while also underneath lies a vast underground so cruel

Our families can try to remain hidden in body armor
or venture forth with no weapon but trust,
a mission possibly ruinous
hiding in oceans swirling in hate propelled by
imagined flippers until we disappear
or to stay behind in smoking ruins, blacking out

There is no chance without maps, our only weakness denial

"I just want to make sure that we are taking into account other policy priorities"
San Francisco Supervisor Scott Wiener

Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), aka "DiFi", wants California Demowhatzitz to do battle with Republicans and Tea Baggers to "defend the American Dream", the poor, et al. California Attorney General Kamala Harris jumped up and down at the same state party event where DiFi spoke, all happy that Demowhatzitz dominate California's important state offices. She really likes Governor Jerry Brown.

To support her family, an undocumented worker gathers recyclables from street-side containers. 'I do it out of necessity,' she says.

It's not yet 3 a.m. Juana Rivas grabs her shopping cart and steps off the curb into the dark.

She shields herself from the cold with a sweat shirt and jacket, along with a pink hat and gloves she bought at the 99-cent store. Only a barking dog interrupts the silence.

Interview with the Raven known as Yoazz

I caught up with a raven while walking home.  The raven indicated that he was a philosopher.  I told him I’d been trying to catch up with him for quite some time.  He informed me that his name was YOAZZ…and that he didn’t really want to get into my shit—but since I was being a rather insistent pain in the ass—he’d grant me a few minutes of his time.

Q: Nice day isn’t it?
