| [00:00.744] | October 27th, 2018 |
| [00:04.637] | I'm writing you one last time Annika Norlin |
| [00:08.398] | It was nice to see you that morning at the station |
| [00:13.414] | I'm sure you were a warrior in a previous incarnation |
| [00:17.750] | Me, I must've been a rabbit or an ostrich |
| [00:21.564] | Or a pile of trembling leaves sown together with cross stitch |
| [00:26.344] | My anxiety has been holding me hostage |
| [00:30.733] | I've developed this problem with a really tough itch |
| [00:35.226] | I went to the clinic to get a prescription |
| [00:39.667] | Cried a little in front of the physician |
| [00:43.925] | Ointments and sedatives and antibiotics |
| [00:48.183] | Went home with a bag full of legal ********* |
| [00:52.624] | The best is the sedatives, they work well but softly |
| [00:56.699] | I don't scratch myself in sleep, I pass out like a baby |
| [01:01.348] | When I wake up I'm rested, l'm calm and happy |
| [01:05.711] | The only bad thing is the strange dreams that haunt me |
| [01:10.100] | I'm deep in the woods, in a village with tipi's |
| [01:14.331] | The branches from old oak trees hang heavy |
| [01:18.877] | A woman carrying a baby greets me says she's glad that I came, she's been trying to reach me |
| [01:27.471] | She shows me around, the villagers are happy |
| [01:31.886] | they give me some wine and flowers to greet me |
| [01:35.830] | their society's based on a loose form of anarchy |
| [01:40.558] | they've dealt with the climate ,injustice and patriarchy |
| [01:44.477] | Cause this is the future I can tell from their technology |
| [01:49.335] | But they use it for good and they use it so sparsely |
| [01:53.672] | They are not but slaves under their own machinery |
| [01:58.086] | The cogwheels turn only when they think it's necessary |
| [02:02.266] | And the woman grabs my arm and she looks me in the eye |
| [02:06.707] | She's contacted me cause she's worried about our time |
| [02:11.200] | This future is oniy one of many lines |
| [02:15.536] | That we can potentially walk down |
| [02:19.220] | you and I |
| [02:23.869] | When I wake up I giggle cause it seems kinda cringey |
| [02:28.597] | I think about their village, what abunch of ****ing hippies |
| [02:32.934] | This must be because I read that book by Marge Piercy |
| [02:37.348] | Where some people from the future make contact with Connie |
| [02:41.737] | A woman in a mental institution in the seventies |
| [02:45.995] | and show her their world that's one of many possibilities |
| [02:50.384] | And instill in her the hope to fight for humanity |
| [02:54.824] | I loved that book, but as a document of history |
| [02:59.108] | Cause now it seems strange to hope for anything at all |
| [03:03.497] | When every step forward seems infinitely small |
| [03:07.729] | Save the polar caps from melting by recycling milkbuttles |
| [03:12.013] | While the CEO's are flying their pets to skilodges |
| [03:16.663] | How vulnerable it is when someone says what they want |
| [03:20.895] | Instead of just saying what they don't want |
| [03:25.309] | How easy it is to laugh at someone's utopia |
| [03:29.620] | after decades of being spoonfed dystopia |
| [03:35.732] | I rub my cortison ointment on my eczema |
| [03:40.617] | I take my sedatives and crawl up to the heater |
| [03:44.875] | Keep treating the outside, ignoring the inside |
| [03:49.133] | Keep treating the symptoms, not the root of the problems |
| [03:53.731] | And in my next dream the woman's back again |
| [03:58.328] | This time she's shouting cause her signal is fading |
| [04:02.116] | I wake up sweating, my skin is itching |
| [04:06.713] | I put some ice on it and sit down in the kitchen |
| [04:11.128] | And outside the leaves are slowly falling |
| [04:15.229] | Over pigeons, buildings, CEO's and children |
| [04:19.931] | I'm gripped by a love for this world that we live in |
| [04:24.242] | And I think about a quote from Ursula Le Guin: |
| [04:27.951] | "We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. |
| [04:33.045] | So did the divine right of kings. |
| [04:37.355] | Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings" |
| [04:45.584] | There's a dying Iight in the distance that beckons |
| [04:50.416] | As the clocks are rapidly running out of seconds |
| [04:54.883] | This is where I get off I reckon |
| [04:58.906] | Take care of yourself, your friend |
