[Tippin' my hat to Martin Luther]

“I’m countin’ down to the day deservin’
Fittin’ for a King.
I’m waitin’ for the time when I can
Get to Arizona’
Cause my money’s spent on
The goddamn rent
Neither party is mine not the
Jackass or the elephant “

Just a quick update to tell you where I’m at

After moving back to the Bay Area for six months… I’m about to mix it up again… where to? I’m not exactly sure!

We had some great success and challenges with the documentary film project – Andrea and I met up in Northern India last year to interview Tibetan Exiles about non-violence, China, the Olympics… you can see some of our work online here:
http://digitaldharmafilms.org
due to lack of funding and general life being what it is … the project of making a full length documentary is on hold…. but if you are interested in helping or have any film-maker resources, please clue me in!

I’m looking for places to go visit and work/live for a bit – specifically farms, cooperatives, retreat centers, land projects where there is a need for some skilled hands and a commitment to Art, Community, Activism and just plain having a good ‘ole time…. so if you know of anything like that out there please let me know.

I’m also looking to buy a truck that can be my workhorse – a good truck for traveling, working on a farm, maybe through a camper on it, tow a trailer with some tools and camera and stilts and my chef knives…. a gypsy wagon!

My short term plan is to explore and have a respite from the city for 6-mo or a year, and then see where that leads me or perhaps go back to school… maybe in Sweden!

So that’s the nutshell version…. of my life… would love to hear about you!

In Gratitude,

Tom Sepe

This event will include DJ’s, Live Music, Activist Speakers, & Visuals of the Tibetan Struggle.

March 10th 2008 marked the 49th anniversary of the Tibetan National Uprising. Tens of thousands of Tibetans rose up against China’s illegal invasion and occupation of their country. Despite China’s best attempts to destroy the Tibetan spirit, Tibetan resistance has continued for nearly half a century inside Tibet and in exile communities worldwide. With all eyes focused on the Olympics in China, Tibetans and supporters worldwide are protesting the Chinese government’s use of the Olympics as a political tool to legitimize its illegal occupation of Tibet.

RISE UP & TAKE ACTION:
On April 9, 2008, this very Olympic Torch will pass through San Francisco. This is the ONLY stop in North America. Help us draw attention to the worsening human rights situation inside Tibet. Help us use the Olympics spotlight to shame and embarrass the Chinese government and show them that until Tibet is free, China will never be never be accepted as a leader on the world stage.

Join Cyphertown , Giveback & Wasfia Nazreen this Sunday to stand in solidarity with Tibetans and help raise funding for the March to Tibet, a non-violent campaign to bring Tibetans exiled in India back to their homeland. March to Tibet will include international DJ’s and music, activist speeches and visuals of the Tibetan resistance at the infamous 1015 Folsom in San Francisco.

The Tibetan People’s Uprising Movement, www.tibetanuprising.org , is a global movement of Tibetans, inside and outside of Tibet, that is engaging in direct action to end China’s illegal and brutal occupation of Tibet. Through unified and strategic campaigns, the Movement seeks to seize the Olympic spotlight and shine it on China’s shameful repression inside Tibet, thereby denying China the international acceptance and approval it so fervently desires.

Giveback: Please join our online community at www.giveback.net to exchange information on the issues you are passionate about. Giveback turns inspiration into action by connecting you with organizations that are creating positive change.

Cyphertown started educating us all about the strategic opportunities of the Torch’s passing through SF last November, with the “Torch of Truth” event at Temple SF. Cyphertown is proud to be co-creating with Giveback and Wasfia Nazreen to bring you a PARTY with a PURPOSE.

The King of Carrot Flowers

Part One

When you were young
You were the king of carrot flowers
And how you built a tower tumbling through the trees
In holy rattlesnakes that fell all around your feet

And your mom would stick a fork right into daddy’s shoulder
And your dad would throw the garbage all across the floor
As we would lay and learn what each other’s bodies were for

And this is the room
One afternoon I knew I could love you
And from above you how I sank into your soul
Into that secret place where no one dares to go

And your mom would sink until she was no longer speaking
And dad would dream of all the different ways to die
Each one a little more than he could dare to try

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i’m really emotional today.
this song makes me cry

tired of watching all my friends party party
tired of watching myself struggle struggle struggle
trying just to get by
trying to bring a smile to another
trying to find what happiness looks like for me

while greed, war, disease, destruction ravage our heritage, our family

tired of feeling like nothing matters
tired of feeling like we have no voice

tired of being ineffective
tired of being afraid

tired of being lied to
tired of not knowing the truth or anything close to it.

tired of being american
