Chamomile steam for lungs the wildfire summer keeps filling with ash.
Camobhil — the little apple-scented daisy — has soothed inflamed airways since long before there were air-quality apps. Ten minutes of slow breathing through the steam.

Cha bhris an t-snàthainn — the thread does not break.
Above a Manhattan brothel in 1895, people met in secret and called themselves the Cercle Hermaphroditos, the earliest known trans advocacy group in this country. They gathered to defend one plain right: to dress as we please. The century gave them no room. They met anyway.

The Battle of Harlaw was fought #OTD, 24 July, 1411. Before the battle the Clan Donald bard Lachlann Mòr MacMhuirich composed this brosnachadh or incitement to battle. Each line contains 2 describing words, & each successive pair of lines all begin with the same letter while retaining the 7-syllable format of each line. The poet works through the entire Gaelic alphabet in sequence.

Tha an talamh a' cuimhneachadh — the earth remembers. And what she remembers this week is every July before this one, stacked like plates.

The blackberries went red to black along the fencerow this week. Goldenrod is thinking about it.
This is the long unglamorous stretch the old calendars barely name — past the solstice, before the harvest. Nothing beginning, nothing ripened. The whole world simply holding.

Cùm grèim, ach na cùm cho teann 's gun bris thu.
Hold on — but not so tight that you break.
You're allowed to be furious and tender in the same breath. The land is both at once, all the time, and it has never once apologized.

The air came up off the pavement this morning like a held breath, and my knees knew the pressure before the phone did.
Ninety-four degrees, the red clay gone the color of dried brick. And the black-eyed Susans opened in the ditches anyway.
