A Correspondence Worth Printing: Historian Zambrotta and the Poet

… then scan introductory notes for “Visions of Nova Terra I” through “VI.”

As with other aspects of our developing fifth dimensional Earth, this one is already among us in rudimentary form. In the First World we call them “he-” and “she caves,” and they are considered a luxury, from which their indwellers may be peremptorily summoned on whim.

A closer facsimile to the evolved human future existed among the Kikuyu people of Kenya, in which a wife of any age was free ~ nor incurred ill will in anyone whomsoever by so doing ~ to close the door of her personal hut for any period of time without interruption except in true emergency)

Visions of Nova Terra ~ A Room of One’s Own

Each member of our happy human race
Has for her or himself a peaceful place ~
Since children raised are by community
Even for parents such same haven be

Among us be no hindrance or aught fee
Constructing ways to shelter family
A hut, a room or tent for each one be
To repair to find serenity

The silence-loving writers where they may
Give vizualization freest play,
The gardeners closest the garden to,
Communicators nearest others to!

After we from others come unmeshed
Return to them all rested and refreshed
Empowered peaceful meditation by
Ready anew for harmony to try

Without any ill feeling such accrue
We have access, each, quiet shelter to
That overcloseness, closeness not undo —
A little distance adds near moments to
