    So I've been alive in New York City since 1962, and 2023 is the very first time that Canada has had multiple massive wildfires sufficient to black out the skyline here? 🤔 That does not make sense.

      a dust bowl happened in kansas around christmas in 2021, air qaulity in missouri dropped this low too, i had to get out a spray painting mask. if your in ny be careful out there, seen some people make air purifiers with ac unit air filters duct taped to box fans, use that if it's getting bad in your house.

    I live in Spotsylvania, VA, which is about 60 miles south of DC. There's an orange pea soup haze out side my window. You can taste it.

    In New York City, a city of smoke,
    From Canada's wildfires, the pollution awoke.
    The air quality alerts, the hazy skies,
    Millions affected, the danger it belies.
    "𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻'𝘁 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲," Eric Garner's words echo,
    As the smoke chokes the city, a deadly blow.
    The young and old, the sick and frail,
    All suffer from the smoke's toxic veil.
    The wildfires rage, the smoke billows,
    From Canada's forests, the pollution follows.
    The air is thick, the lungs are strained,
    As the smoke's impact is felt and sustained.
    The world's worst air pollution, New York City,
    A warning to all, a call to pity.
    The smoke's reach extends far and wide,
    A reminder of the planet's changing tide.
    As we struggle to breathe in this city of smoke,
    We must remember the words that spoke,
    "𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻'𝘁 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲," a cry for help,
    A reminder to act, to save ourselves.

    The ancestors are speaking. Here's a poem they wrote through me during COVID titled:
    THE WINDS KEEP BLOWING
    The winds... what do they represent?
    I hear her outside my window.
    Blowing & Moving and Blowing & Moving,
    doing her part to change the world...
    Do you hear her?
    Do we understand the winds...?
    Do we understand her language?
    It's a universal language...
    A language that has been speaking the same way, since the beginning of time...
    We refuse to understand...
    Listen... she's getting Louder, Stronger...
    I hear her outside my window,
    doing her part to change the world...
    Is she loud enough?
    Do you hear?
    Do we feel her Anger?
    The wind is blowing...
    she's Annoyed, she's Displeased...
    From the book: TRYIN TIMES from the Pyramids to the Projects
