We might be surer where we wished to go
Or again we might be merely
Bored but in brute reality there is no
Road that is right entirely. - Louis Macneice

And yet,
When thrushes call,
Or winds awake
And sigh – and sink –
And fall –
Into the evening’s grey
I think –
And think
This small heartbreak
Will wear my life away. - A small thing by Marion Angus

Instagram notification - "people are seeing your posts". Yeah, your entire platform is designed not to be seen and I am violating that. 🤷

Some prophets say the world is gonna end tomorrow
But others say we’ve got a week or two
The paper is full of every kind of blooming horror
And you sit wondering
What you’re gonna do. - Maya Angelou

Chester Brown's "Louis Riel" is a meticulously researched #graphicnovel that vividly brings the life of the Canadian rebel leader to the page with striking visual storytelling. Brown's minimalist art style and nuanced narrative provide a humanizing portrait of a complex historical figure.

too heavy. You cannot bring them along.

I have kept myself away from that book, but nobody sensible in my life had described this book as a tragic love story. 🙄 it makes me wonder did she actually write all the books under her name or is there any ghost writer?🫠
