Humans often ask me ‘Grilla, what’s a guy like you doing at Host?’
Munching bananas mostly, is my answer. Along with chasing two small dogs up and down the long thin red carpet that is one of the ‘interesting features’ here at Host.
Don’t ask me to bore you my back-story because, frankly, the past is the past. And anyhow, it pains me to talk about it...
Humans OUCH trying to make OUCH a point OUCH about charcoal OUCH in the rainforest shot OUCH both my parents dead OUCH filled them with lead OUCH :*(
See.
Now I’m helping out the guys at Host with “ideas”.
Stuff like;
Hey guys, why don’t we try and make the world a more equitable place?
Hey guys, why don’t we try to convince people that slash and burn is no way to treat the rainforest. It’s short-term thinking that’ll prove terminal, for Grilla’s and humans alike?
Hey guys, shouldn’t the consensus be that renewable energy is the way2go, and ‘Nuclear’ doesn’t = 'Green' ?
Hey guys, who wants to toss me a banana and stop my belly making strange gurgling noises?
Too idealistic? Maybe so.
But given the lamentable state of our societies and ecosystems - it's realistic too.
