How light are my steps. / Tender winds waft on white wings, / flutter in the blue air, / binding, connecting the skies / to the sunny pavement.

saw this on instagram from a (now retired) tattoo artist I follow who did the art, and was pleased to see it is 1) for a good cause, supporting Matir Asurim: the Jewish Care Network for Incarcerated People, and 2) with lyrics from Donna Donna, one of my old tearjerker karaoke standards. tempted to order one 👀

salute to these artists, and the writer of the article who is a friend.
“I was very flattered,” Klepfisz said. “I thought it was actually a very good choice, because it’s a very minimalist poem, so you don’t have a lot of words to fit. There are a lot of big blank spaces for the music.”
