Thanks for this. You made me read it again.

My favorite part of writing is editing.

Chairs in a circle
Hours at a time,
outside and frozen. Firepit
rimed with white,
unused for months, waiting for
Spring.

I #assure you that its harmless
Quite affordable
And fun
No insurance necessary
Once it has begun
Filled with sound and color
Takes no batteries to run
Guaranteed excitement
All assembly pre-done
Act now.
Hurry quick!
You can have the first one.

Of course I woke up, saw your laughy face, reread the poem and realized the last line totally should have been

Domestic will do

I mean... Oh well. #alwaysediting

Cheers!

Oh that? Just a barn owl
Ascreech in the night
No hoots. They prefer
rasping eerie delight

Shoutout to country singer Josh Ross who uses the proper subjunctive mood in his new hit "Leave Me Too" by singing "if I were you, I'd leave me too." #grammarnerd #alwaysediting

Should have written “enormous load of Travis Kelce penis submissions” but what’s done is done. #alwaysediting

Some more submitting today, lots of editing, some world building. Leftovers for dinner, cats are annoyed that we don't open a window for them.
