When I need hope I always find it in nature, it’s resilience and wonder. Whiteness and capital

When I need hope I always find it in nature, it’s resilience and wonder. Whiteness and capitalism makes us believe we are at odds with the natural world and not a part of it, that we must subdue it and not live in harmony. Our survival is tied to the survival of this world, down to the simplest, most resilient blade of grass. This line is from my poem Mikkels Plass in my my book The Only Worlds We Know, link in bio.
