Spectacular. Recently, in a "spiritually inefficient" sort of way, (thanks for that phrase), I've been sending Elon and his president this kind of Jesus love energy and last night I dreamed of an evening spent with the president where I witnessed him walk among the poor and realize for the first time what he was missing. In my dream, it changed his heart. May he also be turned into "a spaghettified traveller." Keep writing!
After I saw this poem on a friend’s social media feed, I knew immediately that I would subscribe to this sub stack. Even if we never get another poem as good as this one (and I hope we do)—I am happy to support your work because of these extraordinary words. Grateful.
This is what the world needs, so much more than all the Othering we have become obsessed with. Beautiful.
Thank you so much, Mike!
Wow. This is the best poem of the Trump era I have read yet. Thank you.
Thank you! Sad that that we have to have a genre of Trump-era poems to survive, but I'm here for it.
Yeah not a fan of that name for it, but. Maybe the Reckoning Era, instead?
“love that is anything but efficient.” 🙌🏼
Wow. Freaking amazing.
Elon should be so lucky
Mmmmm yes.

Marilyn, thank you so much for your kind, and very hopeful, words. Miracles are possible!
Beautifully said. The right counter to my white hot anger, lol. Salute.
“A love that is anything but efficient”
This is wonderful

Sweet words, Julie. Thank you!
Wow, fantastic. Thank you!
Hands with hot dog fingers. (everything, everywhere, all at once)
Haha, yep!
