how we disappear
by Alessandra Olanow
; writing became my weapon. the ability to transform destruction into creation became a coping mechanism; expressing my pain through words allows me to stay alive.
i write, therefore i am; therefore i exist; therefore i survive. ♡

This is all true but he looks too young to know all this unless I am actually quite old.
Oh.

October-month
Cam in a whilie syne,
But the stooks are oot in Scotland yet,
There’s green upon the tree,
And oh! What grand’s the smell ye’ll get
Frae the neep-fields by the sea!

'What would the world be, once bereft
Of wet and wildness? Let them be left,
O let them be left, wildness and wet;
Long live the weeds and the wilderness yet.'
Inversnaid, Gerard Manley Hopkins

Had to think
When I asked to see
The invisible ink.
Today is #NationalPoetryDay. It’s also #BlackHistoryMonth
This reminds us that poetry is not an abstract art form - but something lived, overheard, dug up, carried, and spoken.
Poetry belongs to everyone
It is community, witness, survival. It is interest in one another.
