This has been in my mind these last days The 1st half - scientific & authoritarian, suggesting acceptability in the notion of labelling Then the shift in the 2nd half to a personal narrative that is profoundly sad We are all immigrants. Where we rest our heads is home #poetry #poemoftheday

Started an angry post about the state of the world but my anxiety wouldn't let me finish. Because the fact of the matter is I'm angry and scared, but I'm also tired and the thought of provoking unwanted interaction ALSO scares me.. Just.. it's shit. It's really shit.

‘You Who Wronged’ by Czesław Milosz. For some reason or other this poem came to mind this morning. Written in a time of tyrants: #Poetry

'Can death be sleep, when life is but a dream, And scenes of bliss pass as a phantom by? The transient pleasures as a vision seem, And yet we think the greatest pain's to die.' – John Keats in 1814 in a letter to his brother Thomas who was on his deathbed. #PhantomsFriday #poetry #booksky

Fuck Greenland I think the US should take over the Vatican! Put in a better pope! One who adheres to the American gospel of Hate Your Neighbor!
