Standing Rock DAPL Protest

Shot some footage at the Wichita, Kansas, Standing Rock solidarity protest against DAPL last night. I'm becoming proud of Wichita with increasing frequency lately. And friends, they may think it's a movement.

Rain of Social Media

"Please post: 'We are still here.'"

Rain of Social Media

Let's rust our armor in the flow.
Let's break the broken-hearted show.
Let's cleanse the glass, not with our tears,
But waves we ride to better years.

Our words and thoughts and what we watch
Describe what we become.
So broadcast something sweet, my friend.
Before we grow too numb.

Speak of love, though hate abounds.
Pour healing on the bleeding ground.
This rain is a reign is arraigned is bombed
Is inflamed when what we need is calm.

Before this storm was another storm,
Another way to fear.
But though we wailed, and levees failed,
Please post: "We are still here."
