    Proceeds from cassettes go to Critical Resistance in Portland, OR. "Critical Resistance seeks to build an international movement to end the Prison Industrial Complex by challenging the belief that caging and controlling people makes us safe. We believe that basic necessities such as food, shelter, and freedom are what really make our communities secure. As such, our work is part of global struggles against inequality and powerlessness. The success of the movement requires that it reflect communities most affected by the PIC. Because we seek to abolish the PIC, we cannot support any work that extends its life or scope."

lyrics

Undoctored/Spirit Wife:

i hope you know you are as beautiful as you are serene
so at one with nature and the quietness of the world
a lot of human things we take for granted
have passed you by and youve struggled sometimes

you have such deep connections with the green earth that you capture
in pictures where no humans ever were in sight
you have a gentleness far surpassing anyone
everything you do you do with quiet faded wisps of movement

never could be forceful
never could be loud or terrifying
so anomalous
youre so anomalous
i mean this in the very best way
an expression of such stunning strength you’ve kept so well preserved
with the patience and resilience of an old sequoia
i mean this in the very best way

we share a close knit guardedness of our infant spirit hearts
weve suffered decay but weve held defenses strong
and we still can find the joys offered absent of our influence
like a break in the overcast with pink skies and sun setting
flocks of flying birds in frosty winter air
a light near a park bench
in a foggy evening
the way untainted nature doesn’t give a fuck at all
the green that still grows on the mayors castle
and the places of the world that weve never seen outside of the photos we see undoctored
were undoctored
let us remain as we be
undoctored

if looks can kill yours bring me to life
dancing spinning glowing spirit wife
