Heidi, that is one of the most deeply moving, radiantly beautiful laments of a Resistance fighter I have ever read. You put this era into its coffin and nailed it shut, but the vampires keep rising. Your work is profoundly important. We the People are still here and fighting. Thank you for being one of us.
Hello Thomas! I used to rarely capitalize in my writing and then as my work moved off Twitter to Byline/Bette etc it required proper capitalization to match seriousness of the times/content.
Thanks for the explanation, Heidi. Now that I have your attention, I still don’t understand why you’re not “following” me for some KGB vs. CIA historical background. Regardless, keep up the good work!
I’m ¼ Ukrainian, btw. My biological mother’s mother was born in Chernivtsi. I was born in San Diego, and I taught English in the Czech Republic from 1993 to 2001.
A long hard dark road my beloved sis. We don’t know where it leads or where it will end. I thank you for your clear eyed view, your diligence and perseverance. I just keep praying and working toward that better day.
"not even the rain has such small hands" =] that's the best I can do this mourning. I hope it gives you a chuckle knowing I remember that from a certain film =] at least it steered me to ee and though exact recollections of the words illudes me this mourning, it brought up some fond memories of reading his poetry with a lovely friend. Thank you for all your work and most of all for caring the whole time. Now "kick out the jams MF's!"

Hard hitting. Angry. Grieving.
I like your poem.
What do you mean you no longer write in lower case?
