“Stop abortion at the source. Vasectomies are reversible. Make every young man have one. When he’s deemed financially and emotionally fit to be a father it will be reversed. What’s that? Did the idea of regulating a man’s body make you uncomfortable? Then mind your f**king business.”

Refresh yourself, sister
With the water from the copper bowl with bits of ice in it –
Open your eyes under water, wash them –
Dry yourself with a rough towel and cast
A glance at a book you love.
In this way begin
A lovely and useful day.
–Bertolt Brecht

“A poem, a sentence causes us to see ourselves.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Magic is the use of spiritual skills to achieve specific goals, according to individual will.”
–Ian Corrigan
