It isn’t enough for poems to be things of beauty:
Let them STUN the hearer and lead his heart where they will.

[Non satis est pulchra esse poemata; dulcia sunto
Et, quocumque uolent, animum auditoris agunto.]

Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
Epistles [Epistularum, Letters], Book 2, ep. 3 “Art of Poetry [Ars Poetica; To the Pisos],” l. 99ff (2.3.99-100) (19 BC) [tr. Palmer Bovie (1959)]

Ok, lesson learned. #moving #supplies like #boxes might be cheaper on#Amazon, but they’re mostly #Uline branded products.

Not only is the leadership of that private company #MAGA, but they’re not as cheap and well-built as #Uhaul.

The U-Haul boxes are thicker and have better glue seams.

This is my new home.

Moving from @faab64 since the site is closing.

Sadly I am going to lose all my followers so I'm trying to rebuild it here.
UPDATE: Thanks to the tip from @astraleureka I have now all my old followers here. I am going to post here from today

I don't think I can retrieve my data so all my posts there are going to be gone when the site closes.

You don't need words to move a mountain. You need words to tell people that you intend to move a mountain and that you could really use their help. We're #moving the #mountain of #ending #homelessness. See it with me. Know it with me. Say it with me. We end homelessness. Booyah!!!

Ich experimentiere sehr gerne mit Formen, versuche maximale Plastizität zu erreichen. Und an so einem großen Bild sitze ich Wochen und ziehe geduldig meine Striche
