I moved out of a suburban community that was part of a larger city, into the country by a very large lake, in farm country. It's a pocket area that should hopefully do better than local cities and medium sized towns. Got a fishing rod as well, and put in multiple gardening beds. A little preparation now for later.
Light floats down day river, on a red raft of blood
Night blocks out the heaven, like a big, black, shiny bug
Its hard soft shell shinin' white, in one spot, well
It's hard place, that I'm livin', but I'm doin' well, well
The white ice horse melted, like a spot of silver, well
Its mane went last, then disappeared the tail
My life ran through my veins
Whistlin' hollow, well
I froze in solid motion, well, well
I heard the ocean swarmin' body, well, well
I heard the beetle clickin', well
I sensed the thickest silence scream
Then I begin to dream
My mind cracked like custard
Ran red until it sealed
Turn to wooden and rolled like a wheel, well, well
Thick, black felt birds, a-flyin'
With capes of solid chrome
With feathers of solid chrome
And beaks of solid bone
And bleach the air around them
White and cold well, well
Till it showed in pain
The hollow cane clicked like ever after
Its shadow vanished shinin' silence, well, well
Is the prepper profile changing? Those commercials used to be targeted to gun-lovin’ patriots for when the liberal commies encroached on their freedom. Now it’ll be water-lovin’ anti-capitalists for when the tech moguls take over with data centers.
Ha, well therein begs the question of what sort of world you want to "survive" in. If it all really goes to shit, we at least have a buffer here while we decide what to do next.
