the deck & the quid


(nnt-channel on tumblr)

On Soviet watches.

"No English dictionary word contains more than four consecutive letters of the alphabet. Among the longest examples are the -RSTU- found in words like UNDERSTUDY and OVERSTUFF, and the -MNOP- in GYMNOPHOBIA (the fear of nudity) and LIMNOPHILE (a creature that lives in marshland)." --@HaggardHawks

Smellosophy.

the morbidezza of the morning light
no more than thirty minutes long,
uninerrable: the iron
of errancy's inconsequential blood.

sesquisaudade fills the other hours
eager to have found their voice;
a Molinist succumbs to kudzu
safely out of reach of any sun.
