while we’re asleep on this shore

Barbara Guest

~ Lights of My Eyes

Lights of my eyes
my only
they’re turning it off
while we’re asleep on this shore
and the thick daffodils
are crying
Lights of my eyes
don’t be afraid of me
what we saw
rivers and roads
ruins
the cast of the sculpture in winter
they will return your voice
and I’ll go on singing ‘adieu’

It’s the feast day of Saint Teresa of Ávila today, often shown in art in a state of ecstasy.

The Muses and The Fates and their diabolical collaboration! Yet the song they force me to sing is so desolate and sweet. My heart laid bare, O Baudelaire. October morning, without a care.

Emily @banrion6.bsky.social · 16h

the dry taste of pills on my tongue. I woke up tense, in my back and shoulders and a foggy head. I just don't care today. Je me sens horrible. Still, I have the strong suspicion beauty is hovering around me. The muse knows I'm weak and is ready to strike. All I can do is submit.

But we probably won't do anything. We should follow the example of that country we malign, Cuba. When the Soviet Union collapsed, Cuba lost its source of farm machines and so forth, but overnight they rallied the ppl to grown organic food and are now the world leader in organic farming.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

Unapologetic! I'm just waiting for my punishment now.

difference between people who rule by cruelty
and those who offer tough but fair criticism
is that people who rule by their cruelty have to gain respect
by reducing a person to desperation.
And they don't mind that the respect they get will never be genuine.
