Good morning lovelies.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine has now reached the one-year mark.

I hope we'll all be gentle with ourselves as we move through the weight of this cruelty.

Today for #OnlySky, I start with my recent experience of armed robbery, to reflect on what we talk about when we talk about "bad" humans - and whether a better vocabulary might serve us, as we try to move ahead in a world where so many make terrible choices that do harm to us all.

And just as quick proof, I did indeed write a poem in a café last year, while processing the heavy news of war. I might do similar today, if I finish my promo work this morning, and get an essay draft started in the afternoon. What a world.

This year's war #poem in a café. I very much look forward to this *not* being an annual tradition. #Poetry #WritersOfCoSo

Reposted text of the #poem, because of course there was a typo. That's why we post our work to the internet: to find errors after the fact! #Poetry #Writing
