lost persephone lyric: "even where the bricks are stacked / love is blooming thru the cracks / even when the light is gone / love is reaching for the sun / it was love that spun the world / when i was a young girl" happy summer y'all

I keep thinking of these Dylan lyrics: “they say that patriotism is the last refuge / to which a scoundrel clings / steal a little and they throw you in jail / steal a lot and they make you king”
Going to sleep bc children. Heartbroken that we as a nation have not rejected this charlatan by a landslide tonight. But I have faith in the long game. Grateful to all for your work
Sending love to everyone— casts, bands, crews, ushers, fans, artists, producers, hell even critics 😉. I know how heartbreaking and hard this will be for so many... but I’m relieved to see some leadership that puts people before profits. 💘💘💘
