Imagine Your Own World

Ripped this image right off of the commuknits tumblr (Thanks dressa!). Why? Because it is fucking glorious! Because the false limitations and depressing culture that we live in should not prohibit us from engaging with our inner creativity and revolutionary spirit. Because even when the world tries to tear you down, tear your mind to pieces, art and beauty and emotion and the REAL and the UNREAL can save you. And you can save yourself. And we can save each other. And it's fucking beautiful isn't it?

Political Poetry

Anarchy
Ever reviled, accursed, ne'er understood,
Thou art the grisly terror of our age.
"Wreck of all order," cry the multitude,
"Art thou, and war and murder's endless rage."
O, let them cry. To them that ne'er have striven
The truth that lies behind a word to find,
To them the word's right meaning was not given.
They shall continue blind among the blind.
But thou, O word, so clear, so strong, so pure,
Thou sayest all which I for goal have taken.
I give thee to the future! Thine secure
When each at least unto himself shall waken.
Come it in sunshine? In the tempest's thrill?
I cannot tell-but it the earth shall see!
I am an Anarchist! Wherefore I will
Not rule, and also ruled I will not be!

Ask for work. If they do not give you work, ask for bread. If they do not give you work or bread, then take bread
