The Air Remembered
By
Paul Kiernan
Sometimes, when we spend our days looking at screens and trying to write, it’s easy to forget the arsenal of power we have built in. We experience the world in far more than just words, screens, logos, headlines, posts, and calls to action. Smell, sound, texture, temperature, taste, physical space, movement.

Paul Kiernan

I have no idea why I would be getting free burritos, but it’s my fame fantasy, so deal with it.
