James McMurtry "We Can't Make It Here"
I can see them all now, they haunt my dreams
All lily white and squeaky clean
They've never known want, they'll never know need
Their shit don't stink and their kids won't bleed
Their kids won't bleed in their damn little war
And we can't make it here anymore

Bob Dylan - Masters of War (Official Audio)
#DavidsMonthOfMusic day 2:
Song by artist whose name begins with B
You fasten all the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you sit back and watch
When the death count gets higher
You hide in your mansion
While the young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies
And is buried in the mud

You come from survivors.
That is plain in the fact that you are here.

Oasis - Don’t Look Back In Anger
#DavidsMonthOfMusic day 27 a song from 1995
In ’95 I was a high school sophomore, and the Oasis album “What’s the Story Morning Glory?” was pretty much in everyone’s constant rotation. Still one of my favorite albums.

Sue, no deadline, right now. This is just for our ongoing essay pub. We've been focused largely on the poetry project the past year, but are looking to add some more regular or semi-regular writers over on the essay/op-ed side! Please submit something, if you feel like it!

Denver authorizes police to protect anti-ICE protesters
The Denver mayor signed an executive order instructing local police to take deescalating action if ICE uses excessive force.
“Federal agents are expected to follow local laws and public safety regulations. All law enforcement officers have a statutory obligation to intervene if they witness illegal or excessive force being used by any law enforcement officer, to include federal agents.”
- Denver Police Chief Ron Thomas

If you’ve been thinking about submitting something, now’s a good time. We’re a small, independent publication that doesn’t (can't afford to!) pay and doesn’t run ads. Authors retain all rights. Reprints are welcome if they fit. Especially interested in anti-authoritarian work right now

Bored in the USA
Father John Misty
I’ve been lucky enough to see him live several times, and my favorite part is always that uncomfortable moment when the crowd isn’t sure if they’re supposed to laugh…
