this link takes you to a favorite (to me) haiku from basho. and yes, it would have been faster just to type it, but since it's on the poetry foundation's site, it seems more polite this way. cheers, campers

Independence Day. A good time to remember to stand against the right wing conservative asshats who would replace democracy with fascism. No Republicans in 2024. They are against the rights of women, people of color, Muslims, and the LGBTQ community.
