An apartment building giving the Leaning Tower of Pisa a run for its' money, in being held up by several steel girders. There are cars on the street below the building, and several construction workers can be seen.
The building is labelled "the total collapse of society as we know it," the girders are labelled "publishing my little poems"

Poem by me.

in trying times
i tend to find
that sighing lines
defeat the mind -
whilst sorrow whined
is left behind,
and common signs
ease lonely pines
yet, all combined,
raindrops aligned
may sweep design
to a single line
so seek the fine
and hopeful rhymes;
raise up the blinds
help sunlight shine

Indeed so! However, in the 10 seconds since posting I've learned a factual correction must be issued: Apparently this pic is from 2007 Germany. But the idea remains sound.

Not a procession, but there is an award for that. In this case, you are "ate vegetable" 🏆

A fluffed out lapdog is labelled "me," it sits on a table of dog show trophies and ribbons, which are labelled: one email / put on pants / no cry / ate vegetable

Me and my friend-boo distracting ourselves from The Horrors by discussing who the mystery buyer of The Conjuring House is.

I can never remember if it's this one or Mauprat by George Sand which mentions Heloise by Rousseau, but IRL novels in other novels is one of my favorite things so I ended up ordering a $45 academic copy of Heloise bc that's all there was. It was a good call, though, it was great.

Morning Moon Report

A little shy today.

Poofy rain clouds in morning blue sky, there is a lunar glow behind one thin section of cloud midframe.

And one day,
the dawn did not come.
But we learned
how to love in the darkness,
and things were not good
but they were well.

Great stuff from social media, for me = my poetry "career", such as it is, all the other beautiful poetry I've been exposed to, all the education brought to my door, and a small # of IRL friends.
