The messaging from this administration has the same vibe as a cross set ablaze in someone’s front yard. It’s about communicating menace and instilling terror, the opposite of what the government of a free and democratic society should be doing.

If you can't ask the question, then that side is extreme. Pendulum swingers. Fragile logic. Asking is the most compassionate thing we can do in a imploding society. Everyone thinks they know. Asking requires listening and exchanging. The best questions are uncomfortable to answer but crucial to ask.

"Figuratively, I meant the fish pulled in, then released—like a good deed. " A new poem on the theme of 'secrets they told', written for TTT. 'Monumental' Thank you for reading 🤍 #poetry #poetrycommunity #imagist #writingcommunity

Monumental

Friends was what I came to
celebrate, crystal decanter,
wine, steady flow of years.

What I meant was I’m happy,
dull-fire in the belly
or a quickening, like butterflies,

anxious, blue, rebirth.

Figuratively,
I meant the fish pulled in,
then released—like a good deed.

While you host,
the lantern dimming my hands,

I recall that caged, golden tiger,
pawing at humidity.

Sign-language for hunger
—or the tender lobes of peonies.

Through the bellglass,
too little wine,
too much of her.

Vikki C.

Sixty years ago today, Medicare and Medicaid were signed into law - securing health care for millions and saving countless lives. As GOP politicians try to tear them down, it's up to us to protect and expand these programs for Americans who rely on them today and for future generations.

Think about what the GOP is revealing with their attempt to suddenly change the Congressional maps: they know their agenda is so unpopular that they're going to lose unless something changes. Of course, what they should be changing is their policies, not the maps.

It's become clear that this administration is just a protracted war on anybody who's read a book without pictures in it. It's a miracle we're all still getting up and going to work every morning. The psychological drain is the point, and I'm increasingly grateful to the people who are still decent.
