Tim Barrus: There are no happy endings. Only punishment.

I am a communist. The word capitalism is never used. David Brooks is sad. However, there were some of us that were on rooftops yelling that this “stuff”, this “stuff,” is coming like a train wreck. I wrote piece after piece, writing after writing, video after video — all of…

Tim Barrus: I am the Man In the Moon, this lantern is the yellow moon, this thornbush, my thornbush, and this dog, my dog.

I am a communist. Authenticity will grab you. And make you read. My North Carolina is the Blue Ridge. The woods found me. I like to sit on the cabin’s moonshine roof (where I am now) with my phone, and from there I can see more than just the sunset.…

Tim Barrus: On Writing
![]()
People will tell you to hang in there. It’s not malevolent. It’s stupid, but not outright evil. It’s just sound coming from a mouth, signaling closure. I’m autistic. I do not get this stuff. What does it mean when their eyes look up into the sky. There is a message…

Tim Barrus: Ezra Klein on Hope
![]()

Tim Barrus, New York Times
I am a communist. Closure seems to be another American bugabuga designed to reinforce that illusive notion that articulates the rhetoric living is worth the work and the struggles of Being Here. Or Not. Americans think “Or Not” is a moral…

Tim Barrus: Cry Don’t Cry
![]()
Indoors the void. The cunt’s tide she rules like a kingdom, but indoors, there is just an oil lamp who makes light for some strange thing in broken sleep. She reaches for the pretense of my soul, I do not have one, being a witch and all, the devil’s anger…
