Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· 14d So they have opened up a #museum of “flops” here in Oslo. It was pretty fun, but it was weird how many of them I had owned/liked.
Did ANYONE else like Coca Cola Blāc or the Sega Saturn?

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Jul 8 I had to cancel my annual longhike because of my back injury (which is mostly better but I'm still recovering).
So instead I booked myself a week in this Norwegian Hiking Association (DNT) cabin. Be jealous 😘. God I love living in this country sometimes 🇳🇴

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Jul 8 Uhhh... I'm sorry what? These new AI spell/grammar checkers everyone is implementing suuuuuuuuck.

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Jun 15 Norway certainly has its issues, and I’m not entirely sure if I think this is enough punishment, but the son of the crown princess was just convicted on two charges of rape and will serve four years in prison.
So at least you can say, #Norway hold its elites somewhat accountable

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· May 31 This doesn't really fit in my collection, but I like it. I wrote it on accident while doing my journalling today (It also ties back to my "Hungry Ghosts" prompt form last week)

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· May 29 I feel like this isn't quite good enough. Like it isn't up to my normal standard of quality. But it's the first #poem I've been able to finish in a little while so I thought I would share.

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· May 17 Gratulerer med dagen Norge! 🇳🇴
Happy 17th of May 🇳🇴 🎉



Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· May 13 So I heard a weird birdcall today and walked onto my deck to see what I THOUGHT was two gulls mating. But upon further inspection….
Bro are you STANDING ON HIM?! The disrespect!!!
#birds #birdwatching

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· May 12 Another #poem for y’all today. Gonna try to post my stuff a little more

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· May 7 So it has actually grown on me. Reading up on the artist, it seems like they are kind of in on the joke. Like it seems the purpose of the piece is “let’s see what I can get these stupid rich people to buy“

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· May 7 Today I had the honor of seeing IN PERSON one of the worlds most expensive and controversial #art pieces.
BEHOLD
#comtemporaryart

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· May 1 In a hotel in Rome and in sorry but wtf is going on with this BLUE. ALLIGATOR SKIN. WALLPAPER?!
Yes it is textured.

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Apr 29 Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places, but I haven't been able to find all THAT many books by poets ABOUT #poetry.
I've already read the one from Mary Oliver and "The Triggering Town" from Richard Hugo. But this one by Louise Gluck just arrived today and I'm very excited about it.

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Apr 28 So the Norwegian Girlfriend™ studied graphic design in college and I NEED y'all to see the dogsitting guide she created for her dog. I'm absolutely rolling 😂💀
(enda bedre hvis du snakker norsk, men hun beklager alle skrivefeilene)

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Apr 14 "I am a native of Kashan
My days are not so bad."
The Iranian modernist painter and #poet I have chosen to read today is Sohrab Sepehri. Sepehri is a step back from the open rebelliousness of last week's subjects and not as well known outside of Iran, though considered very influential.
#Iran

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Apr 10 Here is her #poem, set in the context of the Iran-Iraq War,
A Man with a Missing Leg
(translated by Farzaneh Milani and Kaveh Safa)

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Apr 9 “the era of the chairbound #artist is over… his very vocation, in the face of oppression, is to open the prisons and give a voice to the sorrows and joys of all”
- Albert Camus

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Apr 8 Sometimes called the "#poet of liberty" he was known for his political engagement and deep humanism.
Here is his #poem "When I First Saw the World" and a link to one of the best books of translations of his work

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Mar 20 Ohhhhh these have been a long time coming!
Finally got a date for two poems on "The Poetry Lighthouse" and I can't wait for y'all to see them!!

Malachy Moran@malformed-poetry· Mar 9 Started reading this interesting #poetry collection about witches by Fiona Benson
She does a great job playing with historical sources and basing her poetry on real beliefs
Its also intensely concerned with the persecution of #women, and expresses its points eloquently. I really enjoy it so far
