Choose Something Like A Star Robert Frost 1943 O Star (the fairest one in sight), We grant your loftiness the right To some obscurity of cloud -- It will not do to say of night, Since dark is what brings out your light. Some mystery becomes the proud. But to be wholly taciturn In your reserve is not allowed. Say something to us we can learn By heart and when alone repeat. Say something! And it says "I burn." But say with what degree of heat. Talk Fahrenheit, talk Centigrade. Use language we can comprehend. Tell us what elements you blend. It gives us strangely little aid, But does tell something in the end. And steadfast as Keats' Eremite, Not even stooping from its sphere, It asks a little of us here. It asks of us a certain height, So when at times the mob is swayed To carry praise or blame too far, We may choose something like a star To stay our minds on and be staid.

"And all at once, summer collapsed into fall."

Barely a week into September and the weather is already cold enough to wear my new sweater 😊

We had an all female NSG today... oh, how the tables have turned 😂💜

This week's Nostr Study Group will kick off in about 30 minutes, on Hivetalk (15 min late because I've been preoccupied 😅). Feel free to stop in. Not sure how active it will be today. Bigger stuff we'd been discussing has mostly wrapped up & it's the day after a holiday for many. Probably a good day for introductions, if anyone feels inclined.

I can look at a single unroasted or roasted coffee bean and tell you in which country it was grown and how it was processed. You can blindfold me and hand me a random pile of United States coinage, and I can tell you its total by its weight. Who's the normie now? 😅 View quoted note →
