Christmas again, when you’re supposed to be happiest.
The tree’s decorated, the baby’s agog with joy
& Santa is a white-thatched boy
down our main small chimney with his best.
I hope he makes, we had to have it swept
after one fierce day when flames leapt.

We must live alone; he did; it deepens.
Falling & burning soot is not pleasing:
we thought we’d lose the house.
Pride power loneliness, each in its season,
brought Henry up to three marriages
as up to Penn Station came Christian Gauss

there to drop dead, surround & alone
(Charmed swam the hero of the Hellespont)
as Gaudi on the street in Barcellona.
The fair lose more, having them more to lose
& the good & the geniuses.
Spent dangles of his life in colleges.

Then he limpt down the stairs & left the house

American novelist & poet Willa Cather was born #OTD in 1873. Achieved recognition for her novels of frontier life on the Great Plains, including 𝘖 𝘗𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘳𝘴! (1913) & 𝘔𝘺 𝘈́𝘯𝘵𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘢 (1918). Awarded the #Pulitzer Prize for 𝘖𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘖𝘶𝘳𝘴, a novel set during #WWI. willacather.org #fiction #booksky
Black-and-white studio portrait of American novelist Willa Cather. She looks directly at the camera with a composed, steady gaze, dark hair parted off-center and pulled back, wearing a collared white blouse with delicate pleats. To the lower right is the cover of her 1923 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel One of Ours, featuring a sepia illustration of a World War I soldier in helmet and trench coat, with the title in bold vintage lettering.

There was a time in the not too distant past when expressing contempt for voters by literally shitting on them would have been considered a suboptimal message, electorally speaking.

Just as Lake Baikal contains one-fifth of the world’s fresh water, so does Donald Trump contain one-fifth of its stores of idiocy.

So the federal government has been reduced to the sole function of preventing further exposure of the president as a pedophile and rapist. They didn’t cover this in Schoolhouse Rock.

We looked strong on paper. We had a solid if not spectacular regular season. I actually thought we’d put up a fight, that we’d keep it close. Did not expect to lose in a blow out.

American institutions survived the Great Depression, WWII, the Cold War and McCarthyism, assassinations and riots, only to crumble the second a barely sentient washed up tabloid buffoon in clown makeup and history’s worst comb-over threatened them with mean Tweets.

It has been learned that Crazy’ “Donald” Trump has Lee Greenwood, Kid Rock and the Lesser beach Boys ON retainer! This is very strongly illegal (and “Gross’). I CALL FOR A MAJOR INVESTIGATION. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
