One of my favorite pictures. Road game in high school. The only person you see in the background is my dad. He went to all of them. We lost him last night. Thanks, dad, for everything.

its interesting that as long as there has been language, humans have been using it to say "hey bud, we're having fun with this toy but dont talk so much shit" via pride being a sin in basically every religion anyway KSA is negotiating a surrender to the houthis + 'copters drink gas. go tarheels.

On leaving
you playfully punched
my left
shoulder.

The sensation
remains

But your
voice fades

The sensation
remains
But your
image fades

I
short of breath
tremble

I think
you’ve
cracked
a
rib.

A colour photograph in a gold frame of Maud Sulter represented as Calliope, the muse of epic poetry. She is a Black woman, with bare shoulders. Her face is in profile, turned to the left, her chin raised, with red lips. She draped in dark fabric, seated by a table with a small cased photograph on it. The background resembles crushed velvet in a dark purplish-black.

Stepped outside last night to call my orange tabby cat in for dinner and caught him on the fence staring at creature rustling in neighbor's leaves.

Meanwhile, inches from him on same wood fence rail, an opossum waits for him to move so he can continue foraging.

Orange tabby cat on redwood fence staring at creature rustling in neighbor's leaves. An opossum, inches away on same wood fence rail, watches the cat. A hanging bird feeder on shepherd's hook is in front of fence. A large tree with green leaves behind the fence creates a canopy over fence.
