Mahmoud Darwish, from Journal of an Ordinary Grief (tr. from the Arabic by Ibrahim Muhawi)
[Text ID: A place is not only a geographical area; it's also a state of mind. And trees are not just trees; they are the ribs of childhood.]

Atlas
by U.A. Fanthorpe
There is a kind of love called maintenance Which stores the WD40 and knows when to use it
Which checks the insurance, and doesnt forget The milkman; which remembers to plant bulbs;
Which answers letters; which knows the way The money goes; which deals with dentists
And Road Fund Tax and meeting trains, And postcards to the lonely; which upholds
The permanently rickety elaborate Structures of living, which is Atlas.
And maintenance is the sensible side of love, Which knows what time and weather are doing To my brickwork; insulates my faulty wiring; Laughs at my dryrotten jokes; remembers My need for gloss and grouting; which keeps My suspect edifice upright in air, As Atlas did the sky.

As We Are So Wonderfully Done With Each Other
by Kenneth Patchen
As we are so wonderfully done with each other We can walk into our separate sleep on floors of music where the milkwhite cloak of childhood lies oh my love, my golden lark, my soft long doll Your lips have splashed my dull house with print of flowers My hands are crooked where they spilled over your dear curving It is good to be weary from that brilliant work It is being God to feel your breathing under me A waterglass on the bureau fills with morning... Don't let anyone in to wake us

[grabs your shirt] listen. listen to me. the practical is holy. the everyday is sacred. the simple act of surviving is divine. do you get it? sanctity begins at home, in the hands that build and the lives we live and the deaths we die and the worms that eat our bodies. if making something by hand is not worthy of veneration then nothing is.

Hi! Do you know any other homemaker blogs that are run by people who arent transphobic nor homophobic or anti-feminism, trying to find blogs that don't hate on minorities every chance they get is driving me insane.
I have a cold, so my brain is foggy. My followers, please feel free to pitch in!

Anyway, it would be great if some non-conservative (progressive, liberal, even libertarian) stay-at-home wives/moms, people interested in traditional topics (cooking, sewing, gardening) and milspouses would like this post so that we can get together and share information and fun aesthetics. I’d like to share recipes and talk about my plants without having to defend the very idea of global warming every three weeks.
