The Forgotten Ones
Caitlin Johnstone- And then one day we just couldn't anymore. Couldn't keep up the maintenance on our shouldn'ts and shoulds. Couldn't pay the contractors to keep building our skyscrapers of spin.
Listen to a reading of “The Forgotten Ones”:
And then one day we just couldn’t anymore.
Couldn’t keep up the maintenance on our shouldn’ts and shoulds.
Couldn’t pay the contractors to keep building our skyscrapers of spin.
Could no longer hold up the weight of a world made of lies
and so we let it splatter on the floor
and sprout night orchids.
