"Siamo scesi, ci hanno fatto entrare in una camera vasta e nuda, debolmente riscaldata. Che sete abbiamo! .. Questo è l'inferno.. la nostra lingua manca di parole per esprimere questa offesa..siamo arrivati al fondo...condizione umana più misera non c'è". "Se questo è un uomo" di Levi.

Happy birthday, Charles!

Thank you @lrb.co.uk —it is such a very powerful issue, this one in which you’ve included this scary poem which visited me. [Turn phone sideways to reconnect otherwise broken lines.] www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

I would not pass any interview for trying to get into a U.S. University. I am wondering how to reach those students who like me will flunk the litmus test of admission to our new fascist state. My ( eventual) new book of poems is for them.

It feels scary in Italian too.

Really time to start fighting this takeover—time to speak up & time to reunite & time to stand up. This is barbaric which is the definition of Stephen Miller. He’s pretty much the worst human I can imagine: static.nytimes.com/email-conten...
