Is there space for monotheism in a democracy?
Hey, just asking questions… America was made possible by pluralism. It’s kind of our defining thing. Terms like “freedom” and “democracy” have different connotations to different people.

This is from a thing I’m working on. I don’t know what it is yet. I think it might be some kind of epic thing involving Persephone and Lucifer. Or it might just be a bunch of poems about gardening. Haven’t decided yet. Here’s something I wrote that might go in it or might get…
