Mountain biked in the Andes of Ushuaia this morning. Spent about the same amount of time falling and pushing the bike as riding. My body is going to be mad later. But it was beautiful.

More stunning work from @janezwart.bsky.social!
It broke my heart to write this poem, and I would give it back if I could reverse my brother's death or my mom's diagnosis. But it doesn't work like that. So I'm trying to open my hands to the joy of having a poem in @thenation.com. Thank you, Kaveh Akbar, et al.
