This haunting piece from Syreeta Muir colored me like permanent Sharpie. Not for the dry-erase:

"This love is like the ghost of Schrödinger’s dead cat" by Syreeta Muir
I’m sure my moans could carryacross 4000 miles. More maybe.They go as the crow flies when I thinkyou’re in another woman’s bed.I have my fingers crossedagainst it— the thought of your closed curves,yo...

Poetry Foundation not fucking around with today's poem of the day
www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/89897/...
A screenshot of Maggie Smith's "Good Bones" Life is short, though I keep this from my children. Life is short, and I’ve shortened mine in a thousand delicious, ill-advised ways, a thousand deliciously ill-advised ways I’ll keep from my children. The world is at least fifty percent terrible, and that’s a conservative estimate, though I keep this from my children. For every bird there is a stone thrown at a bird. For every loved child, a child broken, bagged, sunk in a lake. Life is short and the world is at least half terrible, and for every kind stranger, there is one who would break you, though I keep this from my children. I am trying to sell them the world. Any decent realtor, walking you through a real shithole, chirps on about good bones: This place could be beautiful, right? You could make this place beautiful.
