Sunday recs: I'm reading @thegalester.bsky.social's collection MOUNTAIN AMNESIA & it's astonishing. (I can't remember who pointed me toward it, but thank you!) We all need poems more than ever—if you don't have it already, you should pick up this book &/or tell your library to carry it.

Lord, there are so many fires, so many words, in my heart. It's going to take something I can't even imagine, to put them all out. —Mary Oliver, from "More Evidence"
