Today, after a number of legal hearings for some of the twelve people who were arrested from Occupy Oakland's Oscar Grant Plaza because a symbolic tipi existed on the plaza, I returned to the plaza to see a wonderful sight. Like a Jack Pine which must be destroyed in a fire in order to spread its seeds, the destruction of the adult tipi had spawned sixty juvenile offspring, scattered about the lawn in front of City Hall (now dubbed "Quan Lake" in honor of the mayor who drowned it to keep the tents away).
I attempted to photograph each of them, but my battery died most of the way through and I had to duck into a nearby coffee shop to recharge it. By the time I left, I lamented the darkness, fearing I wouldn't be able to finish the full set. Much to my surprise, someone had lit a candle under each one, illuminating the darkness and bringing hope to the steadfast occupiers who remain in the plaza, just as Occupy itself has lit a fire inside many of us.
"As the licorice workers fight to make their stand
And behind them every honest working man
In unity there's each other and your friend becomes your brother
And in the tyrant's heart will be a lesson learned
Give them hope, give them strength, give them life
Like a candle burning in the black of night
We are with you in our hearts and in our minds
And we'll Occupy a nation through it's darkest times
I know that your hearts are made of a firmer kind
And a riot stick wont kill your peace of mind
You can fight with all the spirit that you possess,
Because your fight is a struggle that is best
As the licorice workers fight to make their stand
And behind them every honest working woman
Join hand with your sister and then you can help resist her
Watch the tyrant burn in the fire that she has built"

"É,
Só eu sei
Quanto amor
Eu guardei
Sem saber
Que era só
Pra você.
É, só tinha de ser com você,
Havia de ser pra você,
Senão era mais uma dor,
Senão não seria o amor,
Aquele que o mundo não vê,
O amor que chegou para dar
O que ninguém deu pra você.
O amor que chegou para dar
O que ninguém deu pra você.
É, você que é feito de azul,
Me deixa morar nesse azul,
Me deixa encontrar minha paz,
Você que é bonito demais,
Se ao menos pudesse saber
Que eu sempre fui só de você,
Você sempre foi só de mim.
É, você que é feito de azul,
Me deixa morar nesse azul,
Me deixa encontrar minha paz,
Você que é bonito demais,
Se ao menos pudesse saber
Que eu sempre fui só de você,
Você sempre foi só de mim.
Eu sempre fui só de você,
Você sempre foi só de mim.
Eu sempre fui só de você,
Você sempre foi só de mim.
Eu sempre fui só de você,
Você sempre foi só de mim."
Tom Jobim
