"A poem is a little machine made out of words." - William Carlos Williams

Issue 004: Corkscrew Willow is out! Thank you to all of our contributors. We hope you enjoy!

Pinterest predicts poetcore is the next trend in 2026. Our turtlenecks and fountain pens have come back into style 🤣 #poetcore #poetryhumor #poetry business.pinterest.com/pinterest-pr...

I dreamt last night that poetry agitators were demanding the President fund poetry in every state. He said only Congress approves funds. We pushed back that he's funded tons without their approval. He punted us to the Kennedy Center board. Politics is invading poetry in my sleep 🤣 #poetryhumor

Looking forward to picking up a few of these 😀

The coherent and cogent use of syllabics in English cannot ignore the natural stresses, the iambs and trochees, the anapests and dactyls – all surging and ebbing within a syllabic framework that offers a quieter music just below those stresses... thefridaypoem.substack.com/p/matthew-st...

An early Christmas present for myself I can't wait to dive into. Science and poetry colliding is a gift 🎁 #Darwin #whatimreadingnow #poetry #poetrybooks #poetrysky

This is a fun shaped poetry piece 👌

My writing chair view this morning 🌄 #7amwritersclub #morningwriters #apoetsview

I took two poetry workshops this morning and needed a walk after, to give the flesh a sunning. Someone else felt the same way 😂 #poetrybreak #poetry #alligator

This is a shame. She was a fierce advocate.

POEM 283: "Soft machine, you are breathing wrong" by Alison Heron Hruby (@alisonheronhruby.bsky.social) "I thought I could breathe well, that I could draw in my ribs like an expert, knew the fundamentals in my heart, to exhale what I did not need." stonecirclereview.com/soft-machine #Poem #Poetry

This sounds like such an interesting place- a Norwegian monument to witches www.nasjonalmuseet.no/en/stories/e... #womensart #witches #sculpture

I love the Ed Pavlić poem in the latest issue. "...to uncruel the cruel when your owned face is the cruelest list of rules..." #newpoetry #poetry

My current poetry project- sea poems 🌊✍️ #poetryproject #poetry #obsessions #writerslife #rachelcarson #ecopoetry

I'm loving this collection. So much meta context for a museum nerd like me and I love how accessibility is a given instead of an add on. #poetrybook #accessibility #disability #poetrybooks #museums

Last year's three hurricanes did tremendous damage to our little town. One of our local authors coped by creating an anthology. I have a poem in the book. #resilientart #anthologies #poetry Read more about the project: thegabber.com/gulfport-ris...

Got a rejection for a series of poems about chronic pain. They said it was too much pain. Perhaps a narrator could monologue about something else. That's literally the gaslighting that people who live with pain face IRL, which is in one of the poems. Huge face-palm moment. #poetproblems #pain

A compilation of some of the poems that inspired me this quarter 😀 #poetry #poems #poetryreading open.substack.com/pub/christaf...

Thanks to @stonecirclereview.bsky.social for publishing this piece set at my local zoo.

Because you needed more pumpkins in your feed 😜🎃 #pumpkin #fall #pumpkinspice #pumpkins

This is a planet of a pumpkin 🎃 #fall #writerslife #pumpkin

I came to the zoo today to work on my zoo poems. This is the yellow billed stork who sits down like a folding chair. #poetryfieldtrip #poetryinspiration #poetryday

For my UK friend: This is a great book and it would help many people to have access to it in libraries and hospitals across Wales. #disability #chronicillness #Wales www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/86e1e73e29...

This looks like a great event writer.org/event/disabi... #disability #writingworkshops

I'm transplanting orchids today and enjoying the beautiful poems @djvorreyer.bsky.social shared from her new collection, Unrivered, on the latest episode of @ofpoetrypodcast.bsky.social 😀 #poetrypodcast #poetrycommunity #newpoetry #poetrybooks (picture of orchids blooming in March)

My poem in the latest issue of @susurrusmag.bsky.social #poetry #poetrysky #newpoems #grief

Here are audio recordings of two of my published poems, I Date the Allergist and Ode to the Bad Poems. We're so fortunate to have a local literary magazine in St. Pete 😍 #newpoetry #newpoems #poetrysky #poetry open.substack.com/pub/christaf...

I didn't get a Writer's residency in October. Of course in my head, I planned the whole week out already. Since that's not happening I'm just diving in anyway. We'll see what surfaces. #poetrylife #poetryprojects #erasure #managingdisappointment

I know some writers say they hate facing a blank page but I think there's nothing better than starting a new notebook. All that potential 😍 #writerslife #poetproblems #poetrylifestyle #poetry

I'm loving @tracibrimhall.bsky.social new book. Such lush language. "...all those xerces flexing, blue apexes on the hust of a poppy's lip until silence ushers them into a quieter fog." #poetry #poetrybooks #poetrybook #quotes
