We Never Know By Yusef Komunyakaa He danced with tall grass for a moment, like he was swaying with a woman. Our gun barrels glowed white-hot. When I got to him, a blue halo of flies had already claimed him. I pulled the crumbled photograph from his fingers. There's no other way to say this: I fell in love. The morning cleared again, except for a distant mortar & somewhere choppers taking off. I slid the wallet into his pocket & turned him over, so he wouldn't be kissing the ground.

Ode to the Maggot Yusef Komunyakaa Brother of the blowfly & godhead, you work magic Over battlefields, In slabs of bad pork & flophouses. Yes, you Go to the root of all things. You are sound & mathematical. Jesus Christ, you’re merciless With the truth. Ontological & lustrous, You cast spells on beggars & kings Behind the stone door of Caesar’s tomb Or split trench in a field of ragweed. No decree or creed can outlaw you As you take every living thing apart. Little Master of earth, no one gets to heaven Without going through you first.

I made a quilt once and I found the process very difficult. I struggled with basically every step. But I think I did a good job overall. And now whenever I see a quilt, I understand it much better.

frame from Tux and Fanny, which is a pixel art movie (except when it shifts into different forms of animation). The frame is a pixels art depiction of a spider hanging from a web. The subtitle reads, "Spiders are often called the angels of the insect world" a fly has entered the frame. the subtitle reads, "because they eat pests and have a strong spiritual presence."

starting to write children's poetry now that my friends are having kids
The Sea of Coldness Rocketship, rocketship, fly me to space, to Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars. I just want to get far away from this place, so let’s venture on out to the stars. I’ve packed all my things! We’re blasting off soon, an hour or two before dawn. I’ll be enjoying my lunch on the Moon before anyone knows that I’m gone. But rocketship, rocketship, you’re hard to fly. By the mare frigoris we crash. I feel very lucky just to have survived, but rocketship—you didn’t last. Then morning comes, and I watch the Earth rise. It hovers there, pale and blue. I wish I knew how to return to my life. Rocketship, what did I do?

got his ass
But Indians were not disarmed by the written word. They quickly under- stood its value. Carved on trees, buried in an urn, or printed in a letter, European written texts were only as incomprehensible to the Indians as the drawings on tree bark was to Woodward or the mention of oro was to Juan de Añasco. The capture of that same Juan Ortiz, a member of the hapless Pánfilo de Narváez's 1528 expedition, showed how quickly Indians learned to manipulate European communication techniques. By the time Narváez embarked for Florida, he was in his fifties and had already served in the conquests of Jamaica and Cuba. He was deeply embittered when Hernán Cortés took his place as commander of the lucrative expedition to México. Narváez spent the followings years petitioning for a new commission that would grant him the right to conquer a part of North America (and would afford him the same gold and glory that had welcomed Cortés). But Narváez, who proved a brash and inept leader, did not have Cortés's fortune. Narváez made one mistake after another, at one point fatefully dividing his already weakened crew into two groups. The two Spanish parties spent more time searching for news of one another than exploring the land and its resources. This vulnerability afforded the chief of Ucita an opportunity. Preying on the Spanish want for news, Ucita attached something that resembled a letter to a stick near the shore, where the Spaniards were sure to see it. To further convince the Spaniards of the letter's legitimacy, Ucita arranged the sticks holding the letter in the shape of a cross. When the Spaniards spotted the piece of paper hanging from a cross, they assumed it contained news of Narváez's whereabouts. Ortiz went to retrieve the letter; as soon as he reached the shore, Ucita's men apprehended him. For the next eleven years, Ortiz remained captive, until the announcement of his presence inspired false hope of gold among de Soto's men.78
