Taking Off from Zone Zero
by Elizabeth Was:
In permaculture, one maps out one's land in terms of
Zones, designing it according to distance, usage of
the plants, tending requirements, etc. You'd plant
your culinary herbs in Zone 1, for example, just
outside the door or even on the windowsill. The
vegetable garden might be in Zone 2, animals in Zone
3, nurseries or orchards in Zone 4 , & Zone 5 would be
the woods. You won't find Zone 0 in many permaculture
books, but I understand it as the self, located
somewhere in or near the body, & it is the Zone that
most concerns me personally...

Inside Zone Zero
by Elizabeth Was
In Her Guy Dance with the Quantum Egg:
Sickness, Synchrons, & the Dark:
Red, yellow, purple, blue. Sweet summer flower colors.
Yeah, well these are the colors of my skin as the
birds chirp outside our bedroom window. That's a plant
of a different color, isn't it? I'll call it poison
ivy: That's the plant I unwittingly chose two weeks
ago as my current teacher. Like a zen master she sits
comfortably back there on that hill, smiling at me as
I wriggle & burn up from the inside out with a fever &
a fervor to match any lusty young lover half my age...

a permaculture of the self
Part III. EXO - INDO: The Healing Chameleon:
An old turtle makes her way slowly forward, between
the railroad tracks, each step, solid as armor. "My
feet touch the warm brown earth." She has just woken
from a dream about exposure - blind naked shell-less
fleshy vulnerability - a place she knows she has to
visit, again and again...
