The Poet

Was all that money I made last year
For whitey on the moon?
How come I ain't got no money here?
Hmm! Whitey's on the moon
Y'know I just 'bout had my fill
Of whitey on the moon
I think I'll send these doctor bills
Airmail special
To whitey on the moon

When Congressman John Lewis was a child, he tried to get a library card. He was turned away & told “The Library is not for coloureds” 💔

He’s a civil rights icon, lover of books, recipient of the National Book Award for Young People’s Literature.

“The Library IS for Everyone” 💚

Home is where I live inside my white powder dreams
Home was once an empty vacuum that's filled now with my silent screams
Home is where the needle marks
Try to heal my broken heart
And it might not be such a bad idea if I never, if I never went home again

Luna moth illustrations based on photo references by @allbugsgotokevin.bsky.social

These were a lot of fun and science facts on them can be found in the Facebook group! (I know, Zugh, Facebook, but there’s more room to type there)

So Elon Musk definitely did that, right? Like, I know ppl wanna argue on Facebook but we’re actually in agreement here, aren’t we? That was pretty unquestionably a nazi salute

Oh, hey, it’s portfolio day! I’m Lirpa, I live in Portland, Or, and I paint with oil pastels, watercolor, and occasionally acrylic. I’m a huge fan of surrealist and whimsical art. All art really.
