on substack deliverance aside june 19 2026 kate athousandbitsofpaper 1 comment have you noticed the sky birds flying i watch them the little ones their wings beat so furiously the big ones soar and glide curiously i wonder deliverance the next bend aside june 17 2026 june 16 2026 kate athousandbitsofpaper 2 comments how often we return to the past because we knew what happened then how it ended and it feels safe even though perhaps it failed or we did yet the pages had spun all the way to the end and we knew now we could begin again although the past is always catching up it writing life
