We mourn the passing of Ella Jenkins, one of the most iconic folk musicians of the 20th century, who revolutionized children’s music and inspired generations of listeners around the world. She died peacefully on Nov. 9 at her residence in Chicago, Illinois. She was 100 years old.

When I asked
for their analysis
my friend
(who has read theory)
quoted Gramsci:
“The old world
is dying. And
the new world
struggles
to be born: now
is the time
of monsters.”

So, my friends,
in this time
of monsters
stay human
oh, my friends, please
try to stay human.

2) Withdraw from people who love you/need you
3) Make an impulsive and self destructive major life decision
