What we do after Saturday
Apr. 7th, 2026 02:46 pmIs come home, with pockets full of lemons
as if we could squeeze out the sunset,
black curls against our cheeks. I
do a load of wash, and red flower petals tumble out,
small stones, and sea glass - this
will be what saves us*.
*"What we do after Saturday will be what saves us," is a quote I read somewhere, and now can't place, about the latest No Kings protest. The internet seems to think it was Jon Pavlovitz.
