Sunday Picnic Amongst the Stars

Sunday, every Sunday, let's have a community picnic. It's probably been a long week, and it's lovely to have a few minutes to sit back and relax and enjoy some good conversation in a less formal space. Feel free to bring something for the Picnic Basket - a poem you liked this week, a thought you had or something you experienced, or even something completely unrelated to poetry whatsoever that you just feel like sharing. Just take a moment to say hello, and maybe have a bite to eat; no one is going anywhere fast, and the shade promises some relief from the everyday heat. Let’s get to know each other a bit better, here under the branches of the poet’s tree.

Have a poetry-related post or posts this week from your own journal/space that you'd like to share with the community? Comment on this thread with the link(s) and a brief description of you're linking to.

That I do.

• a feeling (well past bedtime), about being an academic and a researcher and a teacher and an abuse survivor;
  
• something borrowed, something blue, about having chronic depression and fairly chronic suicidal ideation and the unbalancing wholeness of realising that it is starting to go away; the glory & terror & determination to make the world a better place;
  
• and bitterness//reflections, which is a very self-indulgent late-night scribble about searching for potential.

That first one especially.

I don't quite have words, so I've borrowed yours instead.
