Heading to the airport in a bit! I’ll be leaving my phone behind for my safety and I won’t have access to my social media on my burner. I’ll post photos/ videos when I get back. I can’t wait to share them all with you!

3 days until I leave for the Berlin Poetry Festival! ✈️ My panels and events will be on Tuesday, Wednesday, & Thursday, June 9th-11th at silent green Kulturquartier and Haus für Poesie 📚 Hope to see you there, Eurofriends! 👋🏽

They arrested and detained a PRESCHOOLER and her father this week in Albany. They were asylum seekers following the legal process. We aren’t mad enough.

To anyone who might need to hear it… You are not broken. You are loved. Happy Pride! 🫶🏼

I’m officially a full-on space nerd now! 🚀

Ambulances are on the ground at Delaney Hall after reports that detainees (including kids) are being beaten and gassed inside right now. PLEASE CALL YOUR REPS

Sneak peek at the Berlin Poetry Festival lit mag! Recognize either of these two women? 👀 Stay tuned for more :)

For the record, ICE is not only ramping up in NJ. I have received HUNDREDS of messages from my rapid response group in the last few days about ICE sightings in the Capital Region (NY). Be safe, y’all. This is going to be a long summer.

“Damn, the Pope can WRITE!” is not a phrase I expected to say today, but here we are 🤷🏻‍♀️

Saw a lot of wildlife this weekend, including this sweet mama snapper getting ready to lay her eggs 🥹 She looks like an ancient forest spirit with all the moss growing on her back! 🐢

I’ll be giving a solo poetry talk at the Berlin Poetry Festival next month 🎙️ If you are in the area, I’d love to meet you! See you at Silent Green Kulturquartier on June 11th 📚

Rant: 📣 I love to travel, I’ve been doing it for years, and it’s pissing me off that I have to expend so much extra time effort and money for this upcoming trip. Getting a burner phone, paying for a new phone plan, etc. all because this administration is STILL terrorizing and abducting immigrants.

Just putting it out there - I would LOVE to perform at more fundraisers for the immigrant and refugee community 🚸 The last one I did raised almost 2k for immigrant women and their families 🙌🏽 If you know of something like this, please send it my way! 🙏🏽

In the end, the world belongs not to the hedge-fund managers and vulture capitalists and tech moguls but to the lovers & scholars, the preservers of lost things, the stewards of the natural world, the human artists, the poets and mystics, the child just learning to read.

Made some new friends today 🐐

Finally sundress szn 🌞

Honored to share the same stage as this LEGEND 🙏🏽

Thousands are marching in Selma calling for a full restoration of the voting rights act.

Happy release day to my horror poetry collection THE BUILD-A-MONSTER WORKSHOP from @rdspress.bsky.social . rawdogscreaming.com/book/the-bui...

Forever thankful for my readers 🙏🏽

I am thrilled to have been invited to present my book at the Poesiefestival Berlin this summer! I can’t wait to bring Paraguayan myth and legend to an international audience. It truly is a dream come true for this little indie author!

Happy 3rd Book Birthday to JUEGO DE PALABRAS! 🥳🎂 Based on the idea that the letters of the alphabet are the foundation for all meaning, and therefore life itself, this Spanish-language collection offers a glimpse of the soul through poetry and word play. Available now on my website (🔗 in bio).

THE EMAIL I JUST RECEIVED 👀

I met John Lewis in 2006. He told me a story that stayed with me, one that feels desperately relevant right now. When he was a boy growing up in rural Alabama, John and his family were caught in a terrible storm. The fifteen children squeezed into a small wooden house as the wind began to howl…

Bookshop had another free shipping weekend, so I got some goodies.

Tuesday. Send coffee. ☕️

Happy Perfect Date Day 🗓️

Me and my besties after being left behind by AI

When women say, “yes, all men” it’s because their trust has already been broken. By friends, family, spouses, coworkers. By first dates and ride or dies. By complete strangers and by the people they thought they could trust with their fucking lives. Just believe women. It’s really not that hard.

Aaaahhhhhhhhhh 😱😱😱 My first ever book award nomination 🥹🥳 and it’s for the ELGIN AWARD? Staaaappphhhh

I looked at the astronaut candidate job posting at NASA just for funsies and this made me giggle 🤭

Just tearing up over Carroll’s crater over here… anyone else? 🥲
