I am just drained. Splitting kids and a job and a goddamn poetry newsletter is a big lift, gang. You know how when you’re playing Zelda and the monsters get you down to one heart of health and the game makes that beeping sound to warn you that you’re about to lose and it doesn’t let up until you’re healed? My soul is making that sound this morning.
So, let’s do an open thread. Talk to each other. Talk to me. Ask me anything. New poem will drop, I dunno, some time this week? Send potions.
I like in more modern RPGs where you can use sleep to heal, and one of the options is like "Sleep until fully healed (56 hours)." That's the kind of healing sleep I can get behind!
Drained an down to one heart
Like trailing 8th in Mario Kart
A sword from its sheath
Is no sub for some sleep
'Cause you'll need that to write down some art

Haha if only that we're an option in real life. But I think at some point they'd pronounce you dead.
yeah dead like a FOX
