What Do sad people have in Common? It seems They have all built a shrine To the past, And often go there And do a strange wail and Worship. What is the beginning of Happiness? It is to stop being So religious Like That. -hafiz

since feeling is first
since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things

--the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says
we are for eachother: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's...

How many lives do we live? How many times do we die? They say we all lose 21 grams… at the exact moment of our death. Everyone. And how much fits into 21 grams? How much is lost? When do we lose 21 grams? How much goes with them? How much is gained? How much is gained? Twenty-one grams. The weight of a stack of five nickels. The weight of a hummingbird. A chocolate bar. How much did 21 grams...

Venus of Willendorf
The purpose of the carving is the subject of much speculation. It never had feet and does not stand on its own. The apparent large size of the breasts and abdomen, and the detail put into the vulva, have led scholars to interpret the figure as a fertility symbol.

Things I didn't know about the Death Penalty...
