In a Garden, Hushed and Still
Twilight Whispers. Magic in the Moonlit Garden
In a Garden, hushed and still,
Where the dew clings to the daffodil,
Secrets whispered by the breeze,
Tales unfold amidst the trees.
A robin red, with a chest so bright,
Sings a song in the fading light,
Nature’s Choir in the Twilight sings,
In the realm where silence rings.
The moon ascends, a ghostly sphere,
Casting shadows, far and near,
Stars, like diamonds, in the sky,
Whisper secrets from on high.
Here, in this realm where legends dwell,
Stories of magic silently swell.
In this garden, where time stands still,
Dreams and wonders the air do fill.
In this place of dreams and lore,
Time stands still, forevermore,
In a garden, hushed and still,
Magic lingers, and always will.

Trickle Them Down, But Not Out
The thing about smart people is that they should know better, but alas, intelligence is not the same as wisdom. Not only do the mistakes of experts too short on vision—when they are not corrected—have the potential to do great and far-reaching damage, but they also undermine public confidence in the very notion of expertise. This is particularly so when expertise is wielded in defence of the rich and powerful as a cudgel against those laid low. As an academic, this lack of faith in “so-called experts” is painful to see as it plays out in the spread of dis-/misinformation, conspiracy theories, and anti-intellectualism writ large. But it is also an understandable impulse given the catastrophic failure of an economic ideology pushed by certain economic experts. Supply-side economics has shaped a broken system for the last half-century and has arguably done more to undermine the fabric of the American Dream than any policy framework of the past century.
