The Anthropocene Hymnal is Live!

Thanks for hosting this, Ingrid! Hoping the recording turned out well and we can share far and wide. A great collection of passionate voices who bring me hope for the future! 💕😍💕

Well done Ingrid foe organizing this event and all you have done so far!

I won’t be able to attend Ingrid … but here is beautiful words from “Leonard Cohen”
“A Kite is a Victim”

A kite is a victim you are sure of.
You love it because it pulls
gentle enough to call you master,
strong enough to call you fool;
because it lives
like a desperate trained falcon
in the high sweet air,
and you can always haul it down
to tame it in your drawer.

A kite is a fish you have already caught
in a pool where no fish come,
so you play him carefully and long,
and hope he won’t give up,
or the wind die down.

A kite is the last poem you’ve written
so you give it to the wind,
but you don’t let it go
until someone finds you
something else to do.

A kite is a contract of glory
that must be made with the sun,
so you make friends with the field
the river and the wind,
then you pray the whole cold night before,
under the travelling cordless moon,
to make you worthy and lyric and pure.

What a shame I didn’t catch this! Much respect to you for organising and leading on this worthy venture <3 I look forward to watching the replay back.
