Song of the week

Loyle Carner & Jordan Rakei - Ottolenghi

Poem of the week

it’s not the large things that
send a man to the
madhouse. death he’s ready for,
or murder, incest, robbery, fire, flood…
no, it’s the continuing series of small tragedies
that send a man to the
madhouse…

a shoelace that snaps
with no time left…

the dread of life
is that swarm of trivialities
that can kill quicker
than cancer…

The Shoelace

by Charles Bukowski
