A federal judge ruled that canceling 1,400+ NEH grants causes REAL HARM to scholars and the public. The court ordered preliminary relief for all affected grantees. What's next? A possible trial. We’re in this fight for the long haul.

more than

i could #elucidate
if i really wanted to
but...
i enjoy the arcane verse
i adore the cryptic colloquy
the back
and forth
the call
and response
references i know
only you'll know
so forgive the vaguery
my words are often
for an audience
of one
for you

The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.

You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

paper mache hands
reveal a tale of life
delicate, light as clouds
they rest in mine
what stories could they tell?
poignancy, & gratitude's
tears wash over me
time now measured
in breaths
as long pauses reach
the #threshold
a last peaceful sigh
as your gentle soul flies
