The public good, the fallout shelter, we’re having an assembly today. The wonderful ruckus of it all. Thrown together, pieced together, stitches and seams all showing. From Victory Gardens to Patrick Henry, to Giuseppe Pitrè and Guiseppe Arcimboldo; from Great Wave immigrants to rainy day assemblies.
