this was a delightful read!! especially given that i've been looking at the use of rage, anger, and violence in the work of homer recently. you capture the almost perverted pervasiveness of wrath so perfectly, the way it pushes so hard, it's as if nothing moves. your words are filled with intensity, and your writing style (control, pacing, economy etc.) really allows that intensity to concentrate in the mind of the reader so that by the end of the piece you have people questioning if you're yourself okay 😭😭 i do hope you are of course, but regardless of that, what an incredibly powerful piece of writing. i'm so proud of you for creating this 🩷

Beautiful, cautionary. Humbling and socially instructive. Makes me wonder how such an internal dialogue (pleading?) sounded before we as a species had the words to express the desperate urges reflected in this essay. Surely it could not have emerged from a simple scream or screech. It must have come from the sleepless nighttime, crouched and staring upward from a dark, safe shadowed spot. The mind ablaze with grief, hands over mouth, as the tears blurred to stars.

Thank you for sharing.
