[Text ID: Yes. There is a point at which any person gets tired of knowledge. You could call this a threshold, or you could call this the point at which a person gets tired of knowledge. I'll tell you this: I've never felt further from another than when standing beside them trying to point out a star. /End ID]

(The Mothman Dabbles in Etymology) by Robert Wood Lynn, published in Mothman Apologia

[Text ID: You should know I was not the first to think the word forgive implied an exchange, a deal. Bags, bills, palms. After all it means, at its root, to give completely. Or in some translations, to abandon, as in a debt or grief.

With this knowledge, I entered the world determined to prove that giving and abandonment were the same thing. All my life and now to discover they just looked alike as the shadows cast by mercy. /End ID]

I'm sure someone has asked you this before but top 5 books of poetry?

i feel like i don’t need to tell abt crush by richard siken for the umpteenth time so i’ll stick to recent favorites!

ballast, quenton baker - incredible erasure poetry about a slave revolt

after nature, w.g. sebald - dense, layered, weaving narratives; tricky with its syntax but rewarding

all the flowers kneeling, paul tran - gender & trauma & myth, truly beautiful images

mothman apologia, robert wood lynn - appalachian identity & the opioid crisis, pretty accessible imo

the world keeps ending, and the world goes on, franny choi - climate apocalypse considered with care & compassion, very clear-eyed and lovely
