I always want to read on the Subway, but most book have chapters that are too long. With poetry books I can read one poem at a time and check what station I’m on without ruining the flow. Also poetry is just great.

and knows about niche internet celebs like me:)
i took the semester off because of my brain and im living w my grandmother in the city in the smallest state of the world.
my grandmother is loud and asks me uncomfortable questions but Im going to blame it on her age and not get angry
she has so little time
they were talking abt alzeimhers meds at dinner and I really hope I don’t get it
the man there was talking about his pastrami parties where they all get around the table and pick add the fresh peppery pastrami sizzling out of the oven
and how his father used to make pastrami in Brooklyn
and that he had a pastrami business
anyway
an elderly woman just explained to me her peace and acceptance towards her own death
If I go I go she said
thinking why some people can go and be all peace and noncommittal
what luck
and privilege! to sacrifice your body and time to ur kids and ur husband and ur work and still have enough
to have a country and community that loves you
to be seen as worth peace even in death
