Thanks for posting, Deb. It's a great read!

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

All these CEOs stompinge around graspinge for moneye and biohacks and powere but the best way to lyve forevir ys to make people laugh and be part of unforgettable storyes that make them feel less alone. Love and art and comedye are cosmic and eternal. The worlde will remembir the true stars.

I have really enjoyed being part of this renku! The lyricism and vision of the poets is inspiring. Thanks to John Stevenson and THF for this moment of zen in a troubled world.
