The souls on the scales
The Gods carefully weigh them
#apprize their real worth.

“Should we
#Apprize
the
Skies
Again
and
Then
Again
Later
Tonight
Darling?”
She asks
As
She
Gazes
Up
at
Them
Gloomily.

"#Apprise the 'noodle network' Hatson "

"There’s a noodle network?"

"Yes. For slippery situations like this"

When I was #apprize -d of ur passing, I didn't know what to feel.

In fact, though I'm made of u, I didn't know u at all. All I knew was how u breached my boundaries in ways a father never should.

After the confusion, peace set in ... bc I know, now, u feel it, too.

“I think it proper to apprize you of his conduct and behaviour last Summer—Being suspected of fradulent Draughts upon the Commissary’s Store and other malpractices, it was proposed to bring him to a tryal, which he evaded by requesting a desmission, which was granted him.

Didn't expect to read a letter from the College Council to the County Gaol about executions, but then again I imagine few colleges directly abut a gaol.

What I wonder is why the legacy media (smh at you MSNBC) didn't bother to apprize us of all of Leavitt's response to the reporter. It's much more interesting & important (IMO) than her "Your Mom did," (altho she probably shoulda said "Yo mama" if she was going to stoop so low anyway) crack.

... which they placed in a Hackney coach waiting opposite the gates in Bedford Street ... she did not apprize any person of what she had witnessed until after the coach had been driven away when she acquainted the watchman. The sexton and others employed in the church yard were strictly examined ...

I see a lot of typos that would pass a spell check. E.g., "Keep me apprized." (Which is how I learned "apprize" is a word.)

So they probably fired the proofreaders and went to spell check instead.

71 years in the apprize made you a fucking imperil!

I am enjoying my slow, meditative read of the great Wendell Berry’s latest collection of #Sabbath poems. To read them slowly is not so much to apprize them as to order the heart’s rhythms by them.
