ALL OF THE COSMOS
Ibn arabi said all of the cosmos
is alive. A new beginning arose,
quantum theory and
algorithmic tech bros agreed
(see picture above)
MEDITERRANEAN MOVEMENT
I see a future where freedom
of movement is not only for
commodities and white ppl
and does not stop in the
mediterranean
MAGIC COSMOLOGY
I see a cosmology coming
where we see gender and
passports as much
as constructs as magic and
chose the latter
IMAGINARY CHOIR
I see an imaginary choir of
infinite potentiality singing
truth to power and taxes
to transnational corporations
JIHADI
I see a cosmology coming where
commodity activism and protest
through consumption
does not make your jihad
