EVERYTHING THEY SAY TO TRY TO SEPARATE US IS A LIE. THEY ARE TRYING TO TEACH US TO MISTRUST EACH OTHER SO WE LOOK AWAY >> AND THEN WE DON’T NOTICE WHAT THEY ARE DOING WITH THEIR ALGORIHMS, THEIR HATRED, AND THEIR MACHINES NEAR THE SOURCE OF A RIVER WATER FLOWS GENTLY OVER SMOOTH STONES/ ON THE BANK PALE GRASS QUIVERS IN THE WIND. ABOVE THAT, THE TREES WIH THE FLOWERS OF NEXT YEAR’S SPRING ASLEEP IN THE WOOD, AND ABOVE THAT THE SHARED SKY, WHICH IS ENDLESS

— Robert Montgomery
