MY BEST TIP: Visit Pantai Nunggalan beach early. It was super clean and ALMOST NO PEOPLE when I did.

Visited late evening in mars 2019.

Enjoy!

Det er snart jul. Alle aviser er fulle av oppsummeringer av hva som var årets beste bøker. Jeg misliker de listene, fordi – helt ærlig – hvem bryr seg om hvilket år en bok kom ut?

My life.

I’ve been weighed down with the special of the day

scraped, nicked, rough-handled and often chipped.

When I come down to the writing room he’s sitting on the table next to the keyboard.

I take this gesture to meanthat he’s not trying to be co frontational.

Or, perhaps he’s trying to lull me into a false sense...

God grew bone,
vertebrae stacked into a spine,
rib cage spread
to house his heart
and lungs,
a stomach to know hunger
and tongue to taste.
Olive skin spread, stitched together,
swirled into fingerprints.

Likely he had brown eyes
which blinked bleary open
that first day
and sharpened to sight.

His skull held a...

The day after we returned home from our Thanksgiving-break trip, I hauled the Leddy family artificial Christmas tree out of the basement. A trail of plastic pine needles followed behind me, from the top of the basement stairs to the front of the family-room bay window.
