Today in Tokyo, my wife and I witnessed the infancy of Spring's rebirth & sat on a bench together, and I read her poetry ("Praxis" by @jackbedell.bsky.social & Satya Dash's "Almost an Aubade with Foliage and Light" from Issue 21, and Mary Oliver's "Wild Geese"). It was as perfect as it sounds.

❤️

Thank you, Julian!

Departures 6 "Sillage" by Jack Bedell, closes with the speaker observing "cars stacked on topleach other, oblivious to it all," Bedells poem is about a place that goes unacknowledged. Write a poem or story about something that isn't known, isn't observed. It could be a place, a thought, or a feeling.

Departures 6 comes from @jackbedell.bsky.social and his poem “sillage” in Flight 2 as the year departs

The Flight 2 poetry selection comes from @jackbedell.bsky.social who weaves highway hypnosis in his poem “sillage”
