SCOOP: DOGE notified the Institute of Museum and Library Sciences (IMLS) today that the entire staff is being put on administrative leave effective immediately, I’ve learned from an agency source. They’ll be cancelling huge swaths of grants/contracts and starting a Reduction in Force (RIF).

image of a page from an online book of poetry. white background, black text. all lowercase letters. title is all uppercase & bold. text is left-justified & reads as follows:

INVERSE THEORY

I am at the fault line. No fault
of mine can hide. Trembling,

I am not ready, but there is no
cult of my body; no temple

entrance. What gongs inside
this mountain? It beats itself

unsacred inside a sealed cave.
And what of the wingbeat in you

chorusing in me? What is it

about journeying together seeming
good on paper but not in real life?

Is it that life lifts the proportionality
sign off love's equation only

to burden lovers with pestering
constraints? Or can there be equality

of power between us in the subtle
dance that divides love and loathing?
