The Ecology of Freedom: The Emergence and Dissolution of Hierarchy:

of
The Ecology of Freedom: The Emergence and Dissolution of Hierarchy:
"You can tell how much I’m enjoying a book by how many pages I dog-ear. This is one of those books.
One of the best books I’ve read in a while; “The Ecology of Freedom” was able to take many disparate beliefs i have regarding politics, community, natur" Read more of this review » |

“Anger, surprisingly, often follows social hierarchies. Many people easily express anger toward those who are less powerful—a waiter, a child, a junior employee—but suppress it when mistreated by someone more powerful, such as a boss, police officer, or a government body.”

“To be intellectually humble is not to live in constant doubt. Rather, it’s to live with a mind open to correction, and a heart strong enough to prioritize truth over pride.”

“I wake reaching for you,
fingers curling around nothing,
closing on air thick with absence.
You are not here, but my body does not believe it.
It still flinches at the shape of you,
at the memory of weight no longer there.
Somewhere beneath my skin,
you still exist.”

In the shadow of serpents, you’ll hear my call.
Your victory is hollow, your name is a lie—
For I am the storm, and I shall never die.”

These chains are rust, these years are old.
Darkness lingers, gnaws, decays,
A hollow tomb in endless days.”

“Back to the dark, my cursed throne,
I bear her forth, I stand alone.
Her breath is shallow, soft and dim,
Her pulse a song—a fleeting hymn.”

“Her breath, a perfume laced with midnight’s bloom,
Her skin, a canvas brushed with lunar gloom.
She lies, a mountain range of flesh and might,
And I, a pilgrim, kneel to kiss her light.
Her neck, a column where the ancients wrote,
I trace with tongue, each vein, each whispered note.”
