Canadian poetry peeps:

I am looking for a poem. The first line is something like "The triangular fingernails of March penetrate the skin..." Last line, "Where you can die from going outside."

Canadian poet, lived up north, died relatively young.

Google and ChatGPT are no help.

Every time a potential conflict pops up, someone inevitably calls me a war hawk.

No. Not even close. Nobody who has seen the horrors of war should wish for more.

I’ve spent my adult life in this space. Please don’t mistake understanding and analyzing conflict as wanting it to happen.

For the Epstein victims who would love to see accountability. The government could enact laws that allow victims to disclose their experiences without facing legal consequences.

If you’re an American service member who gets killed in a retaliatory strike, your family can take comfort in the fact that it was done in service of making the host of Celebrity Apprentice feel like a big man for a minute, before he moved on to something else and forgets about this forever

Watching how swiftly other countries have moved on people implicated in the Epstein files as our POTUS & most of his cabinet just shrug & persist really underscores how far we’ve fallen as a country…not the good guys anymore. At least not until our government is disinfected of this Trumpian filth.

Yet another sad reminder that there is a two-tiered justice system in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else.

If elites can be held accountable in other parts of the world, why can't they be held accountable in America?
