Instagrammers in Chelyabinsk Document Meteor Landing


Moments after fragments of a meteor entered the earth’s atmosphere over the southern Ural Mountains early Friday, Instagrammers from the Russian city of Chelyabinsk began posting photos of the meteor’s glowing trail.


The meteor, which lit up the sky about 950 miles east of Moscow, sent a shockwave through the area that shattered windows and injured many people. After the impact, Chelyabinsk resident Сергей Устюжанин (@ustyuzhanin) set out to determine exactly what had happened. Through Instagram, he shared with his friends and the world real-time photos of scenes he encountered in and around the city. “A lot of people in our city didn’t know what happened at the beginning,” he says, “so I used Instagram as a way to share what I saw.”


To see more photos that document the meteorite and its aftermath, view Сергей’s photos and browse the #метеорит and #Chelyabinsk hashtags.

I drain your words

I will not let anyone walk through my mind with dirty feet ~ Mahatma Gandhi


cageandkey:



I drain
through my skin
the words you pronounce
they’d kill
every cell
of my heart
every neuron
in my brain
If I were not to drain
through my skin
every word
pronounced
by your lips 
I’d be dead by now
If I were to listen
to every stupidity
the runs ‘round your head
I thank God
I am clever
that I allow myself
only to listen
to what could build me up
and you try to break me down
and you try with all your might
but you can’t
since I stand like a rock
