#HaikuADay #HaikuHive

Today‘s haiku…better late than never. It was indeed a Monday. This one is inspired by @dabbe telling me not to forget to breathe out on yesterday‘s haiku.

A deep exhale out
Week begins, what lies ahead?
Guarded hope flickers.

Hammad, in a speech she delivered at Columbia, uses the concept of narrative shift in literature and applies it to our current place in history. 4⭐️

A Room of One's Own | Virginia Woolf

We had the absolute pleasure while visiting Wisconsin of stopping into two excellent bookstores. One was named for the tagged book and almost all of their inventory was #LGBTQIA books, and the other was another queer-owned shop my friends frequent. I even managed to pick up a cozy fantasy by a Wisconsin local author. #Bookstore

Interesting and thought-provoking essay by Ursula K. Le Guin which deserves a PICK but accompanied by a foreword by Donna Haraway that I didn't understand at all and would have been a BAIL if it hadn't been so short.

Today is UN International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination in remembrance of the Sharpeville massacre. There are demos planned all over the world tomorrow (March, 22) https://worldagainstracism.org/2025-waraf/map-of-actions-2025/ to protest against the rise of far-right, racist governments and fascism.

Current read. Every page offers something fresh - a reflection, consideration. I am loving it. P22 “as Virginia Woolf well knew, “killing the angel in the house was part of the occupation of a woman writer.” The violence was necessary; without it, that Angel - sympathetic, charming, unselfish (if there was a chicken she would take the leg; if there was a draft she‘d sit in it) - would have plucked the heart out of my writing.”

February was just not a good month for reading. Tagged and Omelas were both re-reads I let myself put on the card so it would look nicer. Besides, if you haven't read Eco's “Ur Fascism“, you should. Personal highlight was Beck&Call, which is a solid gay romance about working class men. It's not cosy - there's blackmail, job loss, cPTSD, and the relationship is rocky for a long time.
