Dear parents: You see all this stupidity going around? Please read to your kids. Let them see you reading. Keep books around. Buy them books if you can. Show them how cool the library is. Tell them book banning is bad. Make reading part of their lives. It helps make good people.

The crysalis Confining I emerge fight Wings bright, no Gray silver black shining The moon calls The sun calls I ignore them They need too much, they consume The nights with only stars Racing up and down the milky way

Goodnight Spiraling down. Good-willed. Focused. Starlight. Motherly hands reach. Sinking. Wakes all night— before fading, wipes tears, rings with a hidden corner of her long train.

Please check dates on articles that you post! If it's old and you must post it, provide a reason why you are! This morning I was caught off guard by an alarming headline and read the whole thing before I realized it was a year old. We have enough to worry about! Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

Slight delay on the 20:53 to Alicante due to an engine issue. Benny from Maintenance reckons he can sort it no bother.

Salt wind threads breath, clouds swell against ribs, sea grass wavers before upheaval. Silence cracks and memories glare. Intense desire to please, bubbling from broken facades, thunder exposes raw frame. Rain lifts, branches sway in learned arcs, orbiting absence. #foxprose #poetry
