A screenshot of a poem. The poem reads: Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
From βParable of the Talentsβ by Octavia Butler

essay I wrote for @pastemagazine.bsky.social on Dylan's first Sinatra album, Shadows in the Night (which turns 10 today), but more broadly about Dylan's voice and how crucial it is to his artistry. adding anything new to the convo? idk. but it was fun to write
I was lucky to read the ms. of this a while ago and the book has stayed with me ever since. The whole time since then and now I've been dying to for it to come out so that I could recommend it to anyone who will listen to me. I just love this book so much.

When men rage, they blow and shoot things up and start wars.
When women rage, we create.
We knit, do embroidery and cross stitch. We create new things ... while we figure out how to fix the broken things.

Just got my Bandcamp stats for Nov. I love that MaryAnn's "John McPhee's Homestead" still gets the most plays on our page.
