I love this one by Ocean Vuong. Read his poem “Old Glory” if this one speaks to you, or check one of his books out (from the library!).

Li-Young Lee reminds us in “From Blossoms” that joy and grief sit side by side, that sweetness always carries a shadow.

that no one puts their children in a boat
unless the water is safer than the land
Empathy is a muscle and poetry is the exercise.

Love this Robert Frost poem that is making the rounds today.
“A poem begins
with a lump in the throat;
a homesickness or
a love sickness.
It is a reaching-out toward expression;
an effort to find fulfilment.
A complete poem is one where an emotion
has found its thought
and the thought has found words.”

Why, yes, yes I would.

Apparently today is International Clash Day. Anyone want to play “which Clash song feels most appropriate at the moment”?
I nominate Clampdown, which was originally titled “For Fuck Sake” which pretty much says it all.

The landscape may look like the frozen mountains of the moon, but at least the local radio station is playing The Lemonheads as you drop the kids off at school. Each of the chimneys of the little houses on your street puff out smoke signals as you slide down the hill.

For everyone who woke up to a snow-globe morning, or those who wish they did, here’s my start on a winter playlist that sounds like holiday music but, in fact, is not (70s/80s edition). What should go next on the lineup?
