Grief is a weird thing.It feels so close, then far again,Then creeping in like swarming bugsOr uncomfortable heat, Springing […]

As the flood approached, our bad habits left us.
They must have known we were not long for this world.
Pride went to the plants, envy to the animals, and so on. All’ we had left were our manners.
Thousands, like I, who lacked the sense to leave earlier, were in line, at the dock, barely standing in rising water, quietly waiting for Serenity to arrive, the last ship out.

Designer Babies and Why It’s Unethical
