Is the plan the communist party of China has for its citizens is to starve them to death in their homes? Or until they go all just go insane?
Communism is an evil horror. It always has been, always will be. Thank God tonight we were born American and into the arms of freedom.

'The dark owls sit in solemn state,
Like stranger gods; by twos and twos
Their red eyes gleam. They meditate.'

I am aching to find a place where I feel I belong in this world, but know very well that I should content myself with where I am right here and now. Step by step by step
The irreconcilable dichotomy between mind and heart, the endless longing of humanity...

'I hear a small voice from the hill,
The vapour is deadly, pale, and still—
A murmuring sough is on the wood,
And the witching star is red as blood.'
-A Witch’s Chant, James Hogg.

In Flanders it was said that will-o'-the-wisps were the souls of unbaptised children. Some versions say that if you baptised a will-o'-the-wisp you would be pulled in the water and drown.

This mischievous parrot swiped a family's GoPro and took it for a ride — and the GoPro caught it all on camera!
The family, which was visiting New Zealand's Fiordland National Park, later found the camera intact at a nearby rock.

#Poetry has left our cultural mainstream & become more of a plaything of the academy.
Many journals & newspapers that once ran poetry no longer do.
Sadly, many that still do bury it on their websites.
Good luck finding poetry on the home pages @newrepublic & @TheAtlantic.

Modernism increasingly used language that walled its poetry off from the poetry lovers of the general public, and it keeps getting worse.
Is anyone who is not a woke poet enjoying Poetry Magazine these days?
Even in that group I don't know how many real readers its poems have.

The Ghost Plant is so called due to its unusual colouring. Completely lacking chlorophyll, it doesn't need to photosynthesise bec of its symbiotic relationship with fungi (gains nutrition via parasitism). It has an ethereal glow & grows in the darkest of forests. #FaustianFriday

I almost never go to the movies (the last time was in 2004 for "The Passion of the Christ") but I will make a point of going to see this one. #Bjork plays a spaewife, Scots dialect for a seeress, from the Old Norse word spá meaning to prophesy. #FaustianFriday #TheNorthman

Near-death by mud. I am serious. Nothing could persuade me to drive on a dirt (mud) road in #Vermont between March and May. "The road I wish I had not taken." #FaustianFriday
