Louise Glück, Poems 1962-2012
She’d been feeding the crows that congregated on the roof
“You shouldn’t make friends with crows” he’d told her.
“Why not?” she asked.
He’d looked up from his desk to answer, but whatever he’d been about to say had vanished on his tongue.
The sun was out for once, and Inej had turned her face to it. Her eyes were shut, her oil-black lashes fanned over her cheeks. The harbour wind had lifted her dark hair and for a moment Kaz was a boy again, sure that there was magic in this world.
“Why not?” she’d repeated, eyes still closed.
He said the first thing that popped into his head. “They don’t have manners’’
“Neither do you Kaz” She’d laughed and if he could have bottled the sound and got drunk on it every night, he would have.

I think about this all the time. I hate that I won’t be able to find out what the world is like in 200 years.

Anonymous asked:
It is not transphobic to want a cis man or woman and not someone with mutilated genitals. Plastic can never compare.
You are contradicting your own argument. >“It is not transphobic” “and someone with mutilated genitals” “Plastic can never compare” You are insinuating that trans women aren’t real women, and that trans men aren’t real men. That is transphobic, end of story.
