Not all of this will make sense.

Statement from Governor Josh Stein on Border Patrol in North Carolina “Public safety is the top priority for all of us in government – and that means fighting crime, not stoking fear or causing division. We should all focus on arresting violent criminals and drug traffickers. Unfortunately, that’s not always what we have seen with ICE and Border Patrol Agents in Chicago and elsewhere around the country. The vast majority of people they have detained have no criminal convictions, and some are American citizens. “I want to encourage North Carolinians to remember our values. We follow the law. We remain peaceful. We do not allow ourselves to be provoked. We stand with our neighbors. And when we see injustice, we bear witness. If you see any inappropriate behavior, use your phones to record and notify local law enforcement, who will continue to keep our communities safe long after these federal agents leave. That’s the North Carolina way. “As this situation develops, I will continue to stay in touch with local and state officials to keep people safe, respect the rule of law, and support our people.”

Sibyl-
Merwin
Sibyl by W.S, Merwin Your whole age sits between what you hear and what you write when you think you're getting younger it's the voice coming closer but only to you so much of your words is the words once they've come out of the ground and you've written them down on petals if it's spring The same wind that tells you everything at once unstitches your memory you try to write faster than the thread is pulled you write straight onto the air if it's summer with your empty needle straight onto a face if there's light enough straight onto hands if it's autumn

Yard work finished, at least as far as I'm concerned. Sure, I could do more. You can always do more.
But today? That's a big nope.
Weather info for my area. Feels like 90. Humidity 70%. Little wind.

It's always this.
Road T intersection at an orange pinkish dusk. The perspective of the T is a V where the bottom of the V is the bottom of the picture where there's a tire skidmark. In the crook of the V is a dark field that meets the sky horizon at the center of the picture.

Speaking of roses.
For you this Sunday day.
Very red roses blooming outside, their petals open wide. Several buds to the right are closed with envy.

A poem by Rudy Francisco Mercy after Nikki Giovanni She asks me to kill the spider. Instead, I get the most peaceful weapons I can find. I take a cup and a napkin. I catch the spider, put it outside and allow it to walk away If I am ever caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, just being alive and not bothering anyone, I hope I sm greeted with the same kind of mercy.
