The live feed of HK protest switched off. Home falls silent. About to take Kiowa to school. Realize life is completely normal outside my window. But my life isn’t. My life feels like it belongs to somewhere else. Because what I really want to see in this life, is being demanded by lots of people elsewhere. Should send live size cut outs of me and Kiowa, with a sign “add us to the numbers.”
