“I looked into his eyes [...] the irises backed and packed with tarnished tinfoil seen through the lenses of old scratched isinglass. They shifted a little [...] like the tipping of an object toward the light.” #PoemOfTheWeek poets.org/poem/fish-2

It’s #WonderfulWordWednesday, for which we have DILATORY, meaning “tending or intended to cause delay.” For example, when I’m trying to do work but my dog is being particularly adorable in the hopes of pats, she may not be intentionally dilatory, but that sure is the effect!

Today’s #WonderfulWordWednesday is INVETERATE, meaning “firmly- and long-established.” For example, elves and orcs are inveterate in the fantasy genre thanks in large part to “The Lord of the Rings” and other such famous fantasy. Can you think of other inveterate tropes?

"Humans, too, give off a visible light—science proves this. But I’m surprised we don’t walk around on fire, what, with the collective lint of our past. Are we always excavating?" #PoemOfTheWeek: "This too shall pass” by Kirsten Shu-Ying Chen, @Heron_Tree. herontree.com/wp-content/upl…

Today’s #WonderfulWordWednesday is OBSEQUIOUS, meaning “marked by or exhibiting a fawning attentiveness.” In fiction, obsequious brings to mind those characters that fall over themselves in authority. Can you think of examples?

The new dawn blooms as we free it / For there is always light, / if only we're brave enough to see it / If only we're brave enough to be it.” Today’s #PoemOfTheWeek: “The Hill We Climb” by Amanda Gorman. youtube.com/watch?v=LZ055i…

#PoemOfTheWeek: “Spring” by Gerard Manley Hopkins. “The glassy peartree leaves and blooms, they brush The descending blue; that blue is all in a rush With richness; the racing lambs too have fair their fling.” poetryfoundation.org/poems/51002/sp…

#WordOfTheWeek: Floccinaucinihilipilification (FLOX•in•oh•SIN•ee•HILLY•pilly•fi•KAY•shun) (say that five times fast!)- The act of estimating something as unimportant or worthless. This is the longest non-technical word in the English language.
