send me pictures of the plants you are growing
since the spring when the virus was growing, tooso that i can see the earth thriving and keep
an image of beauty amidst bombs blasting the soilof little known lands. send me poetry
in the form of birds still singing elsewhereand the color of the sky undisturbed by smoke
from flying fires that target people in their own homesso that i may keep an image of people living
without the fear of death.excerpt from letter to my friends far away by Bavakan
