173 island soul 02


Even in our
isolation
we are not alone.

The voices of a thousand thousand forbears
are written in our cells.

Their songs play out in our stories
in ways we cannot always comprehend.

Who we love
who we hate
What we choose to defend

All encoded
in ancient text in our blood and minds.
