Hi X

How's the burnout going? I hope less burny? Unfortunately, I also have burnout so can't do the thing I said I'd do. I realise this will make your burnout worse and I'm sorry about that.

Hoping for less burnout for you soon!

Today's couplet:
elizabeth bishop bot -@ebishopbot:

A window across the river caught the sun
as if the miracle were working, on the wrong balcony.

gender of the day - @genderoftheday: Today's gender is a cheerful, ghostly centaur with a sword.

“When you choose to be a poet,
when you choose to spill like this,
bleed like this, cry like this,
your pain becomes an exhibit.
A place for people to walk through
and then leave when they are ready.
No one ever asks a museum if it’s okay.”

A friendly note to all the freshly minted cracked eggs. Signing up for pro is highly recommended if you can. $5/month pays for the servers that run the site and gets you access to a raft of cool features.

Personally, I don't use most of them, but I really appreciate the community and for $5 I get to keep it.

A conversation with a good friend yesterday yielded this gem: often we do not know what we mean - "most of the time we have to listen to what's coming out of our mouths"
