I did my first interview a few months ago in advance of my book coming out and I just wanted to share it here liminaltransitreview.com/an-interview...

My Atomic Sonnet “86Rn :: { Radon :: Rodan }” is The Missouri Review’s Poem of the Week! It’s dedicated to the one and only Diane Seuss missourireview.com/86rn-radon-r...

Two starter packs of mostly poets & poet-adjacent people and journals to follow. Remember that any starter pack is just that: a place to start. Won't include everyone. Seek out your people. go.bsky.app/5oLR4YJ go.bsky.app/ThphD9V

Okay, I'm working on a Starter Pack (and accompanying Feed) of lit mags and presses. Who's here? Who can I add? go.bsky.app/QktiLWR

My phone just auto corrected "trauma dumping" to "trauma dumpling," so I painted this in case anyone would like a visual of my mental state. How's everyone else doing?

made an elaborate cup of stovetop chai instead of going to bed

I hate to ruin this place for everyone, but tomorrow the house is voting on HR 9495, which would give the executive branch the power to--without due process--designate any org "terrorist-supporting" and deny it non-profit status. Call your reps now.

the only thing I’m missing on this app is the ability to bookmark

This is an essay on my poem "Ballad," Keats's notion of Negative Capability, and Lorca's Duende, with a prompt and a link to the original poem. I'm happy to share it with you.

here friends take a poem I’m feeling this one a lot these days

looks like the cable news anchors are finally asking minor questions like “what does a mass deportation actually look like” and “are you going to deport citizen children?”
