I’m ending the year with Nothing New in the East.
Written with the hope that the war in Ukraine will end —
so Eastern Europe can stop holding its breath
and start listening to its own unfinished questions again.

It’s about everything that had to wait because of it.
I hope next year the East can turn its attention back to itself — to repair, to breathe, to decide what comes next.
