Dear Everyone,
The last week has been
so difficult in this world
every single day so I
in order to remain OK enough
(my goal now) in order not
to argue with strangers
to argue with a reader who wrote
me about Why I Am Wrong
about a variety of subjects (I’m sure
I’m wrong about Some Things
but I don’t want to fight about
Anti-Semitism, Israel,
whether Mamdani will be
good for New York City, I don’t
want to fight about what’s important now)
so now I who have been a Bad Sleeper
from the beginning actually look
on Instagram at night listening to
as much comedy as possible
every single night. Hoping comedy
will help get us through.
How are you coping? Tell us all.
I found something on Instagram that I don’t know how to send to you but you all probably know better than I do how
The Instagram handle is Couplet Comedy. It’s a singing couple who wrote about their horrible couples therapist, Jacquelyn Denmark in four parts. I loved it.
You probably don't hear as often from all the folks who think You're Right... but we're out here. I'm coping by reading your lovely poems!
I found Couplet comedy on
YouTube.
