"For this defining emotion of the Democratic self-styled 'resistance' we can borrow the Slovenian word hrepenenje: an intense, quasi-nostalgic yearning for that which has not happened."

coop ripper into
spark nada, dank raps
popper icon riot
hick made skulk

Marconi's word reaches Zeta Lupi
iron potpie crop
on Serpo the cocktail hour
is long enough to watch a double feature

Death without death, which also has its adherents,
shawabty of the farther 'stans
& Grob, a grub without issue,
& the owl of Minerva is not yet mobbed by bats

An abject lie. (via silliman)

What's my favorite neologism? After considerable reflection, i say: Paul Celan's "threadsuns" (Fadensonnen)--because it names something that needed naming (what you see when you look at a light with teary eyes), it symbolizes his post-Holocaust life (& titled one of his books), & both the English translation & the original German sound neat. Is it translated otherwise? As "twinesuns" & "fathomsuns" (because the word is also used for the nautical measure that was based on a length of rope; you can think of a shadow meaning of "suns seen through a depth of water" also)...
