Static

So sure you could see it The noise distorts Obscuring the moment The image contorts A truth but fading shadow

The bright white light of the sun shines through the heavy snowfall, illuminating the landscape as snow covered Pine and an antenna pierce the horizon. (Pinus strobus)

To close the year, having experienced enough trauma to last several lifetimes in a few short months alongside my witnessing of global horrors, I grieve who I was and celebrate who I will become. I hold hope, but I will never look forward for me. I will look forward for others, for our interdependent community. I hold hope as resistance, a banner, a cry. I shed what has held me comfortable and I speak to then. I am tired, I am wounded, but I persist.
