“I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair. Silent and starving, I prowl through the streets. Bread does not nourish me, dawn disrupts me, all day I hunt for the liquid measure of your steps. I hunger for your sleek laugh, your hands the color of a savage harvest, hunger for the pale stones of your fingernails, I want to eat your skin like a whole almond. I want to eat the sunbeam flaring in your lovely body, the sovereign nose of your arrogant face, I want to eat the fleeting shade of your lashes, and I pace around hungry, sniffing the twilight, hunting for you, for your hot heart, like a puma in the barrens of Quitratue.” — Pablo Neruda  (via sinkingseas)

newyorker: “I have covered dozens of rallies and protests this past year, and what scares me the most is that I see more and more elderly people taking to the streets, ready to risk everything in order not to lose their right to a decent living,” the photographer Giorgos Moutafis says. “I hope that things won’t get any worse than they already are.” Click through for more of Moutafis’s photographs from Syntagma Square, in Athens: http://nyr.kr/ru6mF2

verticaltheory: Baby’s Palate And Food Memories Shaped Before Birth via NPR: Want your child to love veggies? Start early. Very early. Research shows that what a woman eats during pregnancy not only nourishes her baby in the womb, but may shape food preferences later in life. At 21 weeks after conception, a developing baby weighs about as much as a can of Coke — and he or she can taste it, too. Still in the womb, the growing baby gulps down several ounces of amniotic fluid daily. That fluid surrounding the baby is actually flavored by the foods and beverages the mother has eaten in the last few hours. …This makes a lot of evolutionary sense, says Mennella. Since mothers tend to feed their children what they eat themselves, it is nature’s way of introducing babies to the foods and flavors that they are likely to encounter in their family and their culture.
