I walked in Tucson's All Souls Procession tonight, where people carry signs to remember loved ones they've lost and wear colorful lights in the darkness. And walk a couple miles across town together by the hundreds at night. It's an amazing event, but it's also a mixture of some uncomfortable things. It's not Dia de los Muertos, but it's clearly close, and it's a little too White for comfort, but it's also a very, very real ritual, and one hears Spanish and sees Spanish names commemorated, as well as a lot of English. Both the Hare Krishnas and a conservative Christian group walk in the procession and make their music loud enough to try to take over, while other conservative Christian groups stand on the side and harangue people for participating in something they see as celebration of evil. I wish none of these groups tried to use someone else's ritual that way. It feels very real in a way that few community rituals in the U.S. do despite those groups. Tonight I walked remembering my nephew who we lost very young a couple years ago, and thinking of several other people. It's both contemplative and musical and chaotic. A footnote: I love Tucson's free public transit for getting over there, just hop on the bus, no problem. Free since 2020. #Tucson #Arizona #AllSouls

All Saints
A #poetry thread—
i.
I sit in a Gothic cathedral
of stone tracery,
late medieval
with things we can't see.On this night of All Saints’,
their many souls gathered ’round,
flitting in shadows, faint
and making no soundthat could be discerned
by physical ears
except by those who’ve learned
to listen with tears.🧵👇🏼

In my neck of the woods it's customary to visit cemeteries on All Souls' (although technically, the Day of the Dead falls on November 2).
When I was a child this time of year it would always be cold and foggy; the whole atmosphere was filled with wistfulness and melancholy...
This morning it was 25C and it felt like summer, which is bonkers! I had a nice stroll on the way to my gran's grave, but it felt so weird to be in a T-shirt and searching my rucksack for sunscreen...

The bridge once broken
A #poem (🧵6/6)Now on this day of all souls missed
by those who find themselves left behind,
one faithful departed returns to kiss
the forehead of a son’s reopened mind.[end]

The bridge once broken
A #poem (🧵5/6)Across the valley, dark, deep, and wide,
a spectral stretch of stones appears
to shine as a silvery coach now rides
across, to bring two sundered shadows near.👇🏼

The bridge once broken
A #poem (🧵4/6)By then his old mind’s lantern had failed;
the new light I’d shone back went unseen
and broken arches into a chasm trailed
where once a golden bridge had briefly been.👇🏼

The bridge once broken
A #poem (🧵3/6)The care he’d showed I did not feel
as the pillars of our bridge began to crack.
Too late, I turned back to heal
the fallen span that we now lacked.👇🏼

A #poem (🧵2/6)His memory murmurs in a darkened nook
of years of yearning and wasted days,
as the distance that filled up the book
of our lives still grows as I turn to grey.👇🏼

A #poem (🧵1/6)On the day of all souls in the fall
as leaves lose luster to winter’s bane
my father’s shade returns to call
while I walk along a splintered lane:👇🏼

Ons jaarlijkse Allerzielen ritueel, met warme chocolademelk als toetje in de kroeg naast de kerk, en een wandelingetje in het donker om een kaars aan te steken voor Madelief. Dit jaar iets vervroegd omdat het beter past in de agenda’s. Fijn, zo samen.
Ik merk dat we door de jaren heen minder vet en zoet zijn gaan eten. Nu misselijk. #Allerzielen #AllSouls

One more for this #dark, #mysterious time of the year. The full #moon rising over #Roundway #Hill in #Wiltshire. #Photograph is from this time of the year but a different year. Just how it was - no tricks.

Another one of my cats that passed away long time ago...and actually the first one that came into our family, and a very special one ❤️ As they all are.

A light for all saints, all souls, and this gentle child. On our bike, through the rain. My youngest, 20 now, is suddenly surprised: how small the grave of her sister.
She would have liked Taylor Swift. I agree. Maybe not Midnights.
