IF YOU HAVE NOT YET GOTTEN INTO MARY OLIVER POETRY I BEG YOU! her poetry encapsulates a deeply maternal and spiritual presence i think everyone could benefit from
I DO NOT HAVE TO BE GOOD!!! I DO NOT HAVE TO WALK ON MY KNEES FOR A HUNDRED MILES THROUGH THE DESERT REPENTING!! I ONLY HAVE TO LET THE SOFT ANIMAL OF MY BODY LOVE WHAT IT LOVES, DAMNIT!!!
it’s just so incredibly fun and i need a fun break during these frankly apocalyptic times … not as distraction, but as rest and rejuvenation. i miss sophie so much, she truly shaped the world in all of these untouchable ways
