she was adopted, and she was gone, and she was rejected, like a bad penny, and she came back, like a lucky penny!

(thanks, dolly).

song of the day, teardrop (for penny lu).

 

Love, love is a verb,

Love is a doing word,

Fearless on my breath.

Gentle impulsion,

Shakes me, makes me lighter,

Fearless on my breath.

Teardrop on the fire,

Fearless on my breath.

Night, night after day,

Black flowers blossom,

Fearless on my breath.

Black flowers blossom,

Fearless on my breath,

Teardrop on the fire,

Fearless on my...

Water is my eye,

Most faithful mirror.

Fearless on my breath,

Teardrop on the fire,

I′ve a confession.

Fearless on my breath,

Most faithful mirror,

Fearless on my breath,

Teardrop on the fire,

Fearless on my breath.

You're stumbling a little,

You′re stumbling a little.

 
save us from cruel hope, and annihilating joy.

save us
from cruel optimism,
hope and change,
killing joy,
and genocide,
give us liberation,
bring us life,
and anarchic love.

 

this country is under a dark spell.
what they sell as joy is literal genocide.
don't believe the killers' fake flowery hype.
wake up from the gaslight extinction dream. 

 

love against hate. stop the evil empire.

 

 we are lucky, penny has been with us through it all, through sickness, pandemic, evil misleaders, and genocide. she's been our feline angel, our healer, our spirit guide. bless the cat, bless us in our grieving.
