we scraped snow off lines
kicked the ball through heavy flakes
played as if still kids
~
n.b. Such fun to be able to run and slide about chasing a football for an hour, even when the air temperature is less than zero.

four thousand life years
imprisonment for protests
woman, life, freedom
~
n.b. The tyranny under the theocracy tightens. 400 protestors x 10 years each for daring to question the validity of Iran’s legislature.
Executions are also being carried out.

ebb tide at full flow

n.b. A ship can wait only so long before the tide turns. Many a ship sails without its full complement.
