[Grief] is everything. It is the fabric of selfhood, and beautifully chaotic. It shares mathematical characteristics with many natural forms. Max Porter, Grief Is the Thing with Feathers
Hi @patrickrhone. How are you?
Mark Rylance is a phenomenal actor.
My afternoon stroll.
Out and about
I so love this poem by Michael Longley; it is a lovely reading too.
A slow start to the day. No rush; a good strong cup of tea; a book and sitting zazen. #dailyroutine
H. G. Wells wrote some amazing books.
I wonder if there are any poetry lists on micro.blog? I can’t seem to find any. At the moment, I’m reading Michael Longley’s last book of poetry which is lovely. Does anyone else know his work?
I am dialling things down across all my social media sites and taking a break from writing daily posts on Substack and Wordpress. I will be posting (fingers crossed) a daily reflection here – not that I’m expecting anyone to be particularly interested in my prognostications.
We’re constantly being sent signs but I’m not sure we understand them sufficient to act accordingly. That’s how it feels right now with my writing and speaking about death. I know the gods are watching but what am I supposed to do, really? I’ll sit with it for now, take a walk and see what emerges
I’ve now been asked on to two podcasts to talk about death and dying which I think is timely and long overdue.

I am currently reading and listening to A Beginner’s Guide to Dying by Simon Boas. It is poignant, funny and full of love and I can’t recommend it highly enough www.theguardian.com/books/202…
I have finally managed to post to my blog which is good news.
This will be test #2 which I’m typing via Chrome.
Test post.
