The threaded ball dives into summer, wings unfolding. We are wind’s spirits. Come, dive in, don’t let a dog hesitate.🤣

Sunday’s thighs parade across the window frame. The goblet, arrogant, forgets it’s a balcony. Fresh blue paint on the window, beneath the sill, the clay- already wrecked by the weather’s boot. The wooden window above has not opened yet. The sky over the roof is azure, at a loss.

The roundest moon is a stone practising imagination in a meadow. Night knows nothing of it. It has no mirror.😄

Joy is the color of light. blooming in flowers and honey.

The wind wears no hat. The water has no hair. Only by lying down can one stay afloat, like a corpse.

A five-pointed star with five pink trumpets. Oh, a bridesmaid's wreath. Head down, down, further down.

On rooftops of violet and lavender, clouds are the way home. The road is like a lost story, disappearing at the foot of the mountains. Many rooftops suddenly, unexpectedly noisy.

Classless, heartless and wholly typical. Claire Coutinho alongside her looking for all the world like the school bully’s weaker friend. Awful look: for politics, for women, for women in politics

It is difficult to be understood, especially when one thinks and lives otherwise. - Beyond Good and Evil §27

Give Kemi a break, she’s getting much better at PMQ’s…….one day she might aspire to landing a punch without missing, but until that day, I’ll continue to witness her incompetence.

Badenoch or Farage - quite a close call for the most vile person award.

Just look at what the Lab have thrown away to replace with an utter lightweight with over weening ambitions He must not be allowed to take any credit for the work SKS has done

Keir Starmer has a mandate from Labour members. He stood on a manifesto and won a mandate from the British people His challengers haven’t even bothered to challenge him. What is their manifesto, their prospectus for 🇬🇧. What would their mandate be? 👑s are for Kings not PMs

I just signed the petition backing Keir Starmer as Prime Minister. Don't give Nigel Farage the keys to Downing Street, hold the line. holdtheline.org.uk/petition

Grey-white hair crushes over me like a tide, I flicker like a candle flame. Mountains fade into dusk, the slanting moon sinks westward. Oh, a tree’s dusk- the moon of old age, round as fiction.

Boats are the birds of the sea; white belongs to wings and light. The Green Wave(La Vague Verte), by Claude Monet around 1866–1867

Gandalf: And I hope you never have to. But if you do, remember this: true courage lies in knowing not when to take a life, but when to spare one. From The Hobbit

Flowers in the distance of the clouds - Beyond lies the poppy field.

Wine nectar, raise the glass. Blue beloved. Head bowed. Wheat of years. Golden,emerald-green.

When this monastery was founded in 1051, neither Moscow nor even Russia existed. Putin hates that the fountainhead of Russian history is in Kyiv, not in the trackless wastes his own country.

While equations revel in the definite, nature unfolds endlessly in uncertainty. Nature’s indeterminacy echoes the mind’s disorder. Beauty’s uncertainty responds alike to nature and mind.

'We are clamping down on the harm caused by social media. 'Read all about it on the Nazi pogrom deepfake abuse website'

Can we finally get an apology from all the oh so sensible commentators who have spent the past ten years insisting Nigel Farage isn't part of the far-right

2/2 Syed seems to think the root cause is governments allowing too many “Illegals” in, which alienates even “legal” immigrants. It doesn’t strike him that it’s about resurgent racism rather than immigration per se, even when he’s speaking to “legal” Pakistani students burnt out of their homes!

Cycling to the sea, the wind outran me. The wheels could not keep up with the waves.

A Meadow by Czesław Miłosz It was a riverside meadow, lush, from before the hay harvest, A perfect day in June's sunlight. I searched, found, and recognized it. Grasses and flowers grew there, known to me since childhood.

The setting sun is like a sheep, warm and plump. Turning away, only two ears linger in farewell— it forgets to speak.😄

Over 500 homicides in the UK last year, yet the news media pick out this latest one & the Nowak case. It's deliberate right-wing news promotion of two incidents, ignoring the other 500 murders. It's plain for all to see what the corrupt right-wing media are up to. They're stoking political fires.

Between numbers and mind lies an interstice of uncountable instinct.

At dawn, I want to see such birds— whiter than white, blacker than black, standing side by side, on the cliff like sentries.😄

A cabin, with the sea and lilacs for company. The wind can't get through, because there are too many bees on the lilacs.😄

Is the superposition of points and blocks the sublime? Because it is unknowable and unmeasurable.😉🥰

Gravity is attraction, not weight. The universe keeps its order through the unseen gravity of love.

An oblique angle, a round life. The wind blows the lilac tree into a steep slant; the crown, heavy with blossoms, stays round.

In Family Jacques Prevert The mother knits, the son is at war It seems completely natural to the mother And the father, what does the father do? He does business His wife knits The son is at war He - business It seems completely natural to the father And the son, the son?

The soul should always stand ajar, ready to welcome the ecstatic experience. By Emily Dickinson

Nature is a haunted house--but Art--is a house that tries to be haunted. By Emily Dickinson

Music is meant for human ears. Tell me, what kind of violin are you playing? One whose music reaches people willing to speak the unspeakable — about the Epstein files, illegal wars, and rocket prices — or one whose music is heard only by flies and mosquitoes?

The humanities safeguard social justice; technology must remain ethical.

Keir Starmer accuses Elon Musk of "whipping up division" in the UK
