Matthew Sweeney - As mariposas
As mariposas
Ou o poema que começa com um verso de Diane Di Prima
Na neve, as mariposas caminham rigidamente,elas nem ao menos tentam voar.Suas pegadas são cobertas à medida que são feitas,enquanto elas seguem umas às outras para casapelas frias colunas dos postes de iluminaçãopara esperar lá a chegada da luz.A cada crepúsculo há menos delas,e todas mais cansadas do que antes,contudo, elas…

A poem by Matthew Sweeney
The Ice Hotel
I’m going back to the ice hotel,
this time under a false name
as I need to stay there again.
I’ll stand in the entrance hall,
marvelling at this year’s design,
loving the way it can’t be the same
because ice melts and all here is ice –
the walls, the ceiling, the floor,
the seats in the lobby, the bed.
Not that I lay on naked ice,
but on the skins of reindeers,
piled high, as on a sled.
First, though, I went to the bar –
no beer, only vodka –
and I met my sculptor there,
or I should say, my ice sculptor
whose pieces were on display
in every room in the ice hotel,
and who told me his name was Thor.
We stood in that ice-blue light
swapping whisper after whisper,
drinking vodka after vodka
till we agreed to go to bed,
and neither of us slept that night.
Let me tell you about that bed –
ice pillars, two foot high,
each with a lit candle on top,
and wedged in the middle of each
the four corners of an ice sheet
three, maybe four inches thick.
On this the pelts were laid,
then the Polar Survival bag
that the two of us climbed inside.
Next morning, over Arctic char,
he offered me any sculpture
but which could I take home?
And I didn’t want to go home
but I went. Now I’m going back –
back to the latest ice hotel
with its blue ice, its silence,
its flickering candlelight,
its sculptures I can claim.
Matthew Sweeney
(1952-2018)

If we ever get another live-action Scooby Doo movie, I’ll be a little miffed if Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney aren’t cast as Fred and Daphne, respectively. I’m also lowkey thinking Daniella Pineda as Velma and Joe Keery as Shaggy.
Just for shits and giggles, Matt Smith plays the guy who you think is the masked villain, only for it to be revealed that Tom Holland and Zendaya are the co-main-villains behind everything.
Matthew Lillard cameos as Shaggy’s dad.

Met Gala: Who's Repping Who:
Nicholas Galitzine in Fendi
At least his pants are tailored unlike at the Academy Museum
because the interwebs is giving Donald Glover (in Saint Laurent) the business.
Nevermind that he looks like a Baptist preacher; or apparently a member of The Whispers.
One thing Marc Malkin of Variety is going to do is talk to Nicholas (who spots his RED, WHITE AND ROYAL BLUE costar Uma Thurman on the red carpet).
Uma Thurman, part of Team Tory Burch (with BLUE BEETLE's Bruna Marquezine).
I'm somewhat disappointed Nicholas is wearing fitted clothes. I want those pregnant Henry memes to continue.
apologies to Lea Michele (in Rodarte)
-Galitzine's THE IDEA OF YOU producer Gabrielle Union and husband Dwayne Wade in Michael Kors
PARTIES OF ONE
Doja Cat in Vetements
Damiano David of Maneskin and Dove Cameron in Diesel
The Others
Lily James in Erdem
Lizzo in Victor Weinsanto
Sarah Jessica Parker in Richard Quinn with a Philip Treacy hat
Da'vine Joy Randolph in Gap designed by Zac Posen
Lana Del Rey in Alexander McQueen
Stray Kids in Tommy Hilfiger
Lily Gladstone in Gabriela Hearst
Kieran Culkin in KidSuper
Jeremy Strong in Loro Piana
Matthew Macfayden and Keeley Hawes
Chloe Sevigny in Dilara Findikoglu
Sydney Sweeney in Miu Miu
Nicole Kidman in Balenciaga
Jennifer Lopz in Schiaparelli Couture
Someone photoshopped a gele on her and it looks so right.
