ABOUT
A LONE CROW: Zen Blue Socialist Americana

Blue: tending to support Democratic candidates or policies; holding or offering little hope; dismal; bleak;
marked by blasphemy; indecent; somewhat obscene; risqué
Socialist: supporting an economic theory or system in which the means of production, distribution, and exchange are owned by the community collectively, and characterized by production for use rather than profit, by equality of individual wealth, by the absence of competitive economic activity

Song of the month:
quote from the bardo
Emmanuel Vaughn-Lee, Emergence Magazine Vol. 4, “Shifting Landscapes”
“It has always been a radical act to share stories during dark times. . . We have arrived at a threshold, a liminal space where the world we know is coming undone and new configurations are still taking shape.”
