Can you name names in a poem?
Can you break a line like it’s breaking a window?
We’re open.
We’re listening.
Bring the fury, bring the craft.

This week's #poemsabout #mouths just wasn't working, I almost gave it a swerve - until this popped into my head yesterday! Kōtare (Māori) is a watchtower around a pā (fort) but, more commonly, a kingfisher! Thanks @thebrokenspine.co.uk & @alanparrywriter.co.uk #poems #poetry
Kōtare your mouth closes around words holding them back like your lips dripping with the juice of fresh cherries in someone else’s story as tears fall saltwater marks the end where the estuary beckons the kingfisher stands sentry ready to break the bones of any traveller by river’s mouth before the ocean that will lead us through waters we cannot name

the me of yesteryear’s hopes

#PoemsAbout #BlackVeils is live.

Write into concealment.
What you guard.
What you refuse to translate.
What survives because it stays covered.

Post from today.
Tag #PoemsAbout #BlackVeils to be read and shared.
Use Alt Text.
Take care with each other.
A veiled figure stands against a dark background, partially hidden by black fabric that crosses the frame. Their face is calm and reserved, hands held close to the body. The Broken Spine fountain pen logo is positioned in the top left corner. “@thebrokenspine.co.uk” appears in white at the top right. Bold white text in the lower right reads: “Read Repost Reply #POEMSABOUT #BLACKVEILS”.

GUIDE
— quiet wins

I #coach my doubts down,
teach courage to take first steps—
fear runs drills too.

let me love you broken
not to make you whole
but to hold your pieces
to be a place for you to rest

let me love your weird
cause i am weird as well
we can celebrate together
the things that make us, us

let me love you as you are
no matter what you think
this is the truth:

my love is there for you

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

A 🧵re protective masks for ICE protesters (in Minneapolis MN and elsewhere). I am not a scientist, but my BF has a PhD in inorganic chemistry and provided this info to me so I could provide it to you. Please share and re-post it widely. It may save someone, esp. from green gas ICE is using (1/x)

Not grace, but habit.
Not faith, but discernment.
