I'm not ok. Lots of us aren't ok. And the shitty part of this is not being able to say so. So let's get ok with our non ok-ness. I'm not ok. The world is not ok, and most people I interact with are not. And it IS ok for me, and others, to not to be ok.

Teachers in the staff lounge sipped lukewarm coffee and engaged in robust discussion, trying to solve all the world's problems before the bell rang. In a parallel world, a student named Violetta won multiple prestigious awards for solving world problems. #scififri #vss365

Day's #end. Two black holes collided, forming a single, massive black hole at the exact moment I switched on the CLOSED sign. I felt violent ripples surge through time and space. Goosebumps. Astringent smell. Taste of burnt metal. I felt one with the universe. #vss365

As a book reviewer, in principle I don't write bad reviews. I simply decline to review. A friend of mine once said, if you criticize a poem the wrong way, you risk killing not the poem, but the poet. For me the first aim of poetry is joy, not artfulness. That said, artfulness +
