San Francisco, February 17th, 2013
A Climate Rally
350.org Sierra Club Greenpeace

The last time I marched in San Francisco,
I snuck out of the house, ran away to San Francisco with ‘Flowers in My Hair’.
***
This time was a replay.
I didn’t want to tell my Octogenarian mother
that I was going to San Francisco
to march for the Environment.
She would worry.
I snuck out of town without telling her,
and my son ratted on me.
Little did I know that I should have invited her.
My fellow marchers, those human’s that care about our Planet,
were Baby Boomers and Senior Citizens.
Raging Granny’s
There were Grandmother’s, Great Grandmother’s
and young families, mom’s, dad’s and babies.
I was glad to see them. This is not the radical fringe.
These are real people who care about our Planet.
We need the Radical Fringe, the Granny’s in the middle,
and everyone else we can get to change our looming future.

After the Climate March I was interviewed by Liana Vola, from Ontario, Canada.

Listen if you feel you must! It’s about my art, and environmental influences on my art.

I was speaking from the Ferry Building Pier, watching sailboats slide by.
