Control & servitude
forever your submissions,
you only love the wild
as a symbol of something to tame.
So you chattel some like cattle
just to watch the butterflies
wriggling as they emerge
from tightly bound cocoons,
delicate and safe,
manageable, under thumb.

Sarah Kendzior was jokingly paraphrasing a Johnny Cash lyric in reaction to an article about Johnny Cash, but I understand how this could be viewed as violating TOS.
Nonetheless, between this and misreading the meme that got Link suspended, @safety.bsky.app has work to do on contextualization.

Now I lay me down to sleep again,
if not now Lord, then when?
If I die tonight there'll be lots of sorrow,
So c'mon God, let's have fun tomorrow.

Appears Scorpio Season is going out with a shake up (Uranus). Wonder what secrets may surface later this month (occlusion of the New Moon conjunct Black Moon Lilith). What realizations/ communications (Mercury) may come through?
