Get me out of here if you can and I won't do anything you wouldn't
My poem "Punic War IV" is now online at Through the Gate. Like the majority of my poems in the last three years, its writing was politically driven. It is even aptly timed for Memorial Day, the way most of this country goes about it.
In pleasant counterweight to the previous two nights, I slept about eight hours with only a slight break around the time the sun came up, after which I burrowed back under the weighted blanket and conked out again. Have some links that aren't mine.

2. Abigail Nussbaum on Israeli Eurovision vs. Netanyahu.
3. I love how much this story does with implication: Nibedita Sen's "Ten Excerpts from an Annotated Bibliography on the Cannibal Women of Ratnabar Island."
4. The amusing, educational text that taught Babylonian scribes and teaches us: "At the Cleaners."
5. R.I.P. Judith Kerr. I can't remember if I knew that the same person had written Mog the Forgetful Cat (1970) and When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit (1971). I certainly didn't remember her husband was Nigel Kneale.
pameladean, the first time I saw my husband in a show he didn't write himself, it was Theatre@First's The Lady's Not for Burning. Now he's in their production of The Revenger's Tragedy. I'm looking forward so much. I thought you should know.

Oh my goodness. What part(s) is he playing?
I am beginning to wonder about Theatre@First, just a little.

Supervacuo. Ambitioso is Brian Keller, who was Thomas Mendip when Rob was Hebble Tyson. They play well together.

I am very fond of them and if they stage anything in Minoan, I will notify you and/or flee the country.

I'd appreciate the notification but you may flee the country first if that seems wisest.

I've loved Middleton for years, ever since catching a college production of Women Beware Women.
