My Bsky account vanished. I don’t know how to rebuild. Everyone’s gone.

Poetry, politics, Buddhism, dailiness, Earth…

Reading several books on resistance history & strategies. Also Katherine Volckmer’s The Appointment.

Terrified. You?

The air
all around me knows
not to hold anything
for long. Bc it is this unison of

breath, this unison of
mind the big wind is
after.

"While other universities report that the humanities are shrinking, at Berkeley, the opposite is true. The music major is the fastest-growing major on campus. We are finding bigger classrooms because film is exploding. English is back to the numbers we saw 15 years ago. We are hiring" bit.ly/4ohKuOe

Every story like this needs the tagline THEY DID THIS. All the stories of destabilization, damage, sabotage, punishment, impoverishment, corruption, failure that can and should be laid at the feet of the Trump Administration.

“Are we”

extinct yet. Who owns
the map. May I
look. Where is my
claim. Is my history

verifiable. Have I
included the memory
of the animals. The animals’
memories. Are they

still here. Are we

alone.
