No. Nations do grow, not in virtue or anything else... but their people should. No. Not in that my kids will be more virtuous than I and I than my parents. We each have our own growth to tend to in a never finished project. Yet, and yet. Such sadness when I look at those who are leading this country

Rereading Felstiner’s classic book on translation. He’s such a good reader of poetry and such a generous reader of other translators. A master class in how to read poetry and in how to disagree with the aesthetic choices and mistakes of other translators in a kind and generous way.

And it’s off to the presses. The first of many that will supposedly come out this year.

Let there be a constellation
A galaxy of snowflakes
& may she be there arms
Around them all, pulling
Them close & tight
Until Nikki & galaxy
Victory & constellation
Are but one bright flower

Cup check. Fave cup of the season. Alas, the handle broke last year…much like all our systems.

"A country is only as good as-I don't care now about the Constitution and the laws, at the moment let us leave these things aside-a country is only as strong as the people who make it up and the country turns into what the people want it to become..."
