We killed 85 school girls in Iran today. Congress must return immediately and vote to put an end to this war.

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

Uh . . . we're supposed to believe you care about that after you voted to reopen the government? I don't care who you bring to the State of Union. I do care that you caved when Americans needed you most.

Uh, they're going to literally eat us, aren't they?

True. Also this administration is holding many thousands of people (including hundreds, maybe more, of little children) in concentration camps all around the country. Also, ICE has yet to be abolished.

Yeah dude, you were doing all right, until that last one.

Reforms aren't enough. They're kidnapping people. Killing people. Breaking into homes and cars. Terrorizing everyone. Abolish ICE. Prosecute everyone one of them who broke the law.

Abolish ICE. Don't try to "rein it in" -- get rid of it. Prosecute these child abusers. These kidnappers and murderers.

Abolish ICE. Prosecute the kidnappers and murderers. We should not be funding these violent crimminals.

Thank you for bringing attention to this, now please defund ICE and all concentration camps. Bring these families back home. Prosecute those responsible for these atrocities.

What will it take for my senators to say enough is enough and treat this fascist takeover for what it is? Or better yet, for my senators to step down and let fighters who do understand and are willing to step in and do something tangible?

Scholars of democratic breakdown know that moments like this demand institutional coordination, civil society mobilization, and the political courage to name and confront the authoritarian threat on its weakest flank. Every democracy facing this challenge has learned you don’t defeat authoritarians by being more reasonable. You defeat them by being more determined and by uniting the country against their most visible vulnerability: their corruption.

Sometimes I like to use the bibliomancy oracle as a writing prompt: bibliomancyoracle.tumblr.com/askoracle

Abolish ICE. Cameras aren't the answer (everything is already recorded!). Training is not the answer (all the murderers worked for ICE FOR YEARS). You can't reform the gestapo. Abolish ICE.

The poetry world owes a collective apology to Bill Knott. Wish he was here to be validated.

A dramatic snowscape, with a dark hill and yellow sunset under gray clouds. The close snow is gouged and rippling, turbulent as the sea; mounted in the center is a large circle of ice embedded with mysterious forms, they look like organelles of a cell. There are other secret things, triangle, eye, even things I can’t discern.

The text of my poem “token” reads as follows: TOKEN This for that. This in place of that. This token of my affection. This token victim, this substitute self, this magic amulet, its secret words, the glowing eye, this pyramid that rises, this way the soul is a sigh. This token, coin, ledger line in the great book kept in a million minds. This poem is a token, take it in kind.

Friday’s Ice Art and Poetry: “Token”

Tokens mediate all kinds of exchange. The token of ice, in circular form, is the flip side of a narrow line of a poem—Mark says he was trying to carry the "secret and mysterious tone of the poem." Ben thinks the ice extends the poem beyond mystery to an answer.
