Folks outside Sri Lanka—I know all your countries are also on fire (it is really not a good year for anyone is it) but as you can tell from recent headlines such as these, Sri Lanka is doing extremely badly, and any support you can give, even small amounts, will go a long way. 🙏🏾

This dropping of all Covid protocols is ableist & ageist! & what about Long Covid?? This government is unethical. As someone living with an extremely clinically vulnerable husband, it is so hard, with the differently abled it must be unbearable to go out at all. What can be done?

If only one line of a poem I’m working on springs to life, I feel hopeful, as it means the poem is buried in there, I’ve just got to listen hard for it. If I can’t dig it out now, i’ll wait, and in the darkness of the file it might grow another root by the time I return. #poetry
