The Sodden Astronomer

They say, Do not look at the stars,
or you will step into holes
and sink your shoes in mud.

So you can keep your eyes
fixed on the ground,
safe from puddles,
safe from falling,
and miss the lights
burning above in the dark—

except for a stolen glance,
a hurried sip of heaven.

Or you can throw
caution to the wind,
lift your thirsty face
to those bright jewels
sewn into black velvet,

and stumble on
with wet feet.

Lover’s Abyss

I was told as a young child
You can dream of anything
So, I dreamed I was a blue horse
midnight blue with a touch of white
gracefully strong
unafraid of the world
accepting of the unknown
beautiful essence
assuring eyes.

I was told as a student
You can’t dream anymore
its time to grow up
learn how to be an adult
learn to be practical
understand your place
abide by our laws.

As an adult
I was told
You’re a lot of trouble
try harder to fit in
let go of that childhood dream
stop messing around
be something.

I traveled this world
in spite of people’s viewpoint
I traveled as a blue horse.
Unafraid
Accepting
Assured and complete.

I saw a blue horse
with a daisy behind her ear
standing alone.
Sky blue she was
as were her eyes.
Gracefully she moved
towards the crest of twilight.
I asked if she wanted company?
She said, yes.

Beyond the crest we disappeared
into our abyss where our solitude awaited
playing with season flowers
and coupling under the stars.

The eternity we exist in
is the eternity we make.

The sell-out of the DACA young adults is one of the worst betrayals by government in this new century. #Dreamers #Immigration https://www.ms.now/news/ice-detains-daca-recipient-premature-baby

The sell-out of the DACA young adults is one of the worst betrayals by government in this new century. #Dreamers #Immigration https://www.ms.now/news/ice-detains-daca-recipient-premature-baby

From Jan 1, 2025 to Nov 19, 2025, #ICE reported 261 #DACA recipients were #arrested & 86 had been removed from the country, acc/to Noem’s letter.

It said of those arrested, 241 had “criminal” histories, but did NOT provide further information, citing privacy issues [like they give a shit about that]. The senators demanded #DHS provide more info on the rationale for arresting & deporting #Dreamers.

#Trump #law #immigration #WhiteSupremacy #WhiteChristianSupremacy #TheCrueltyIsThePoint

Unsurprising, but still shocking

Noem says >250 #DACA recipients #arrested & dozens #deported in 2025

#DHS Secy #KristiNoem said in a letter to #Democratic Sen #DickDurbin & other senators that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program provides just that, a deferral of removal “for a period of time.” [dog killing demon]

Durbin & Sens #AlexPadilla (D-CA) & #MarkKelly (D-AZ) blasted the treatment of DACA recipients, known as #Dreamers.

The Trump Administration Is Arguing It Can Hold Dreamers Indefinitely

By Jessica Washington, Sept 29, 2025

Excerpt: "According to a tracker launched by a coalition of immigration organizations, including the National Immigration Law Center and United We Dream, nearly 20 #DACA recipients have been detained within the last year.

" 'We’re really concerned,' said Juliana Macedo do Nascimento, deputy director of federal policy for the immigrant advocacy organization, #UnitedWeDream.

"Macedo do Nascimento said that the #Trump administration appears to be intentionally going after DACA recipients, who should not ordinarily be targets for #deportation.

" 'There are two cases right now, that we’re aware of, Jean Carlos and [Paulo Cesar Gamez Lira], where ICE showed up to in Paulo’s case, to his mother’s house while he was dropping off his kids, specifically to apprehend him, and then in Jean Carlos’s case, to his own house specifically to detain him,' she said. 'So that shows that de-prioritization is not happening anymore.'

"They’re trying to 'kill DACA by 1,000 cuts,' said Macedo do Nascimento, noting that the administration has been urging Dreamers to 'self-deport.' "

DHS Says DACA Recipients Are “Illegal Aliens,” Tells Them to “Self-Deport”

Since President Donald Trump took office, federal agents have detained and attempted to deport DACA recipients.

Well, getting up at 4AM to start the day’s journey and returning home at 11:45PM wasn’t exactly… relaxing… but there is no doubt in my mind that it was worth every single minute to meetup with and get to learn from the folks at #fedicon

Crashing in my own bed feels very very good. Goodnight fedizens, may your dreams be filled with #mosstodon and #bloomscrolling while also righting all that is wrong with the social media world!

I like #Dreamers, and we should revise our #immigration laws to do more for them.

I also like the song #Dreamer. 3 completely different songs titled Dreamer were sung by Ozzy Osbourne (who recently died), Elizaveta, and Supertramp. I enjoy all 3 of those songs. #music
