donnalotus: Artwork by Willow Arlenea (landwork)

The last three times in particular that I’ve been home I’ve been communicating with the totems on Dad’s farm, the farm where I grew up with. I used to do this a lot as a child, but I’d forgotten how to, or just stopped doing it. I didn’t realise it’s what I’ve been doing, because they’ve been very subtle, and they’ve taken a step back at the moment due to the physical “damage” he’s done to the place.

In Dad’s defence, he’s just “cleaning” the place up, and I think they understand that, but they see in me someone who knows how this land should look and feel, and it feels very dead at the moment. Times have been harsh, and dry, and there hasn’t really been anyone there to nourish this land in a long time.

 

Dad doesn't understand any of this... )
