On the sacred ordinary and the act of noticing
I stumbled upon your field note this afternoon, and I am smitten. I can't wait to catch up on all your other field notes. Your storytelling is riveting. You unraveled provocations. Thank you for writing this.
Oh thank you for these kind words. I appreciate you being here.
My 6 things from this morning:
A girl on a scooter clutching her mothers kurta
3 chairs marked “fragile artefact” in prime public view and I thought me too
A tiny scratch on the back of my neck; reminder of my first-time-ever in life long nails that I’m wildly unprepared for
The breadth that OAFF takes to start the first line of NEU: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=WG4ba8HF_lM&si=bqR5C5o_sHwVqsIc (that I have heard on loop 8 times this morning)
The length of NEU being <2 minutes and it feeling impossible to hear it enough
If I like something or someone, my immediate need to find a resemblance of them to someone else I love
What lovely artefacts from your morning. Thank you for sharing!
Thoughtful and thought-provoking. Thank you.
Thank you for being here and for reading.
Your work carries me through these dark times. Thank you.
That means more to me than I can say. Thank you for being here.
So many great poems!
So much to think (and write) on.
Thank you.
Poems beget poems. Grateful as always for you. Thanks for reading.
Thank you for such a rich and beautiful Field Note. So much to notice!
Thank you. The world is always offering us something—here’s to noticing more of it together.
Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate you being here.
