Poet, Alumna of @CBSNews @60Minutes @BBCWorld @FaberAcademy. Love @britishlibrary & @VanguardRead #amwriting #poetry #visual #journal #travellingwithdevices 🧶 #crochet #StitchingTogether for the #CommonGood
#Gratitude to @jennymitchellgo.bsky.social for her poetry and wisdom: “Poets are still routinely dismissed as having their heads in the clouds, but I think it takes real power to withstand everyday stresses and big life challenges AND still sit down and still write from the heart.” #poetrycommunity

May the #NewYear be as mysterious, strange, vivid and poignant & as moving as this fragment of a torn up note, written by an unknown writer to an unknown recipient, that I found, wet, out in my garden.

Sometimes two words, chalked on a painted wall, can say it all.

Saw this on a wall in Lisbon & just hoping you have a peaceful & restful day. Don’t worry about the ‘unpacking’ just focus on the floating & letting go!

I keep Donald Rumsfeld’s theory of how to control the #political #narrative up on my wall: ‘If you deceive audience they have to draw up the inference on their own to end up with a false belief. In other words, your audience makes a choice what to believe. They are responsible for the choice.”
