Did you get the new cellphone you were looking for? Make sure you recycle your old one!
"There are hundreds of thousands of cellphones lying around. They have coltan in them. Coltan is often illegally mined," Dr. Jane said, "leading to the destruction of the rainforests."

Are you looking for magic? Have you put it down somewhere, placed common sense on top of it by accident. Do you remember how it hummed, if it shone for you and beckoned? Can you think of a happy thought? It can be the smallest thing, like stars balanced on your fingers…

Mice scurry, spooked by wings embarking on midnight forage. Beyond the trees the coyotes yip and banter and small things stay quiet. The moon plays with shadows across the snow, trees becoming spectral, long fingers stretching while stars move through their stories.

Magic might be
when we don't understand
something awesome,
like thousands of crows leaving
their roost together at dawn

Cast aside
man-made woes for a while -
find magic
in fields frost-embellished,
bright star-sparkling skies.
