I mean, I won't say no because books should be shared. But like a nervous parent I'll worry about them until they're safely back home 😜 😂

Person: how does writing work?
Writer: well you type & you delete. You rethink. Then you do 187 min of
research & correct it. You reread & wonder if you have a grasp of English.
Then you revise
Person: then you're done with the book?
Writer: then you move to the next sentence

An image macro with the text "This is the only explanation I could come up with for how Godzilla stands in the middle of ocean". The image shows Godzilla standing waist-deep in the water. A cross-section of the water reveals that underneath the surface, Godzilla has long, human-like legs wearing bright pink high heels that extend all the way to the ocean floor.

Each night she fills, from the fabled
well of disappointment, a kettle
for her hottie…

—Kathleen Jamie, “Mrs McKellar, Her Martyrdom”
from The Edinburgh Book of Twentieth-Century Scottish Poetry (Edinburgh University Press, 2005)

Mrs McKellar, Her Martyrdom
Kathleen Jamie

Each night she fills, from the fabled
well of disappointment, a kettle
for her hottie. Lying
in his apportioned bed:
Mr McKellar – annulled
beside his trouser press.

Who mentions, who defers to whom
on matters concerning
redecorating the living room,
milk delivery, the damp
stain spreading on the ceiling

when a word is a kind of touch?
Speaking of which, and they don't,
the garden needs attention
and the bedroom window frames,
exquisitely, the darkening hills,
a sky teased with mauve.

But he won't notice, or smell her burning
fix it! fix it!
won't look up the number
of Roofer and Son about that
slightly bewildering stain,

and she'll keep schtum.
Medieval in a dressing gown,
she'd rather display
toward an indifferent world
the means of her agony:
a broken toilet seat,

or die, lips sealed, regarding
the rotting window sills, that
wobbling shelf, which she could
as it happens, repair herself,
but won't, on principle.

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.
