Slow Progress Can Feel Non-existent, But It’s There! When You Zoom Out, You’ve Come Such A Long Way!

“Some people like thick hair like a lion’s mane, and other people like thin hair that pours down like an inky waterfall, and some people love someone so much they forget what they look like. Some people think the night sky full of stars at midnight is the most beautiful thing imaginable, some people think it’s a forest in snow, and some people… Well, there are a lot of people with a lot of ideas about beauty. And love. When you love someone a lot, they just look like love.”

— Rebecca Solnit, Cinderella Liberator

“What does it even mean to write a poem? It means today I’m correcting my mistakes. It means I don’t want to be lonely.”

— Jennifer Chang, from “Again a Solstice,” Some Say the Lark (Alice James Books, 2017)
