"To look at QAnon is to see not just a conspiracy theory but the birth of a new religion."

"My fight is figurative, blows i' the air,
Brain-war with powers and principalities,
Spirit-bravado, no real fisticuffs!"

It is hard to believe in cause & effect, when the big message of powerlessness never lets up, & the constant small thwartings are arguing otherwise.

hell-hound on my heels, ills
hither ring the zither
stone gate like a gunshot

The toll on the feelings, year after year, of putting up with waste, with stupidity, with incompetence.

"Dungeon synth seems to me a marriage of three things: a certain lo-fi production aspect which is minimalist in nature and comes out of the cassette origins of the genre; a certain lo-fi aural aspect because of the usage of synths and ROMplers; and 3rdly a much more difficult to describe style of composition. andrewwerdna refers to solemnity and reverence, both of which are good hallmarks.

If you have any two of these aspects, you stay within dungeon synth"

A temp's taper-dimpseful
Toeing the line finely
Afflicts my vowed vector
Veering from recumbence.

This part is; swerve service.
I never asked ivy
Oz garland our gauze-ark.

"A cat is more intelligent than people believe, and can be taught any crime." --Twain

Past a certain degree of stress, we start gaslighting ourselves.

"...some questions will ruin you if you are denied the answer long enough." --Jeff Vandermeer

Tent City America.

"Rhesus Peanutbutter Cups"

Mushrooms eterne, morning-
mimsy brownwhite symbol
in the sere green sunrise
says, shadows, be glad of

frith though denied freedom.
Frapped to a great raptor's
safest berth in Sothic
season; to sleep uneasy

anyway, our wanion.

(1990)

Down in the abyss.

"Crying mole-crickets mourn for the moon,
Beneath hooked balustrades."
