Honored to have a new poem in The McNeese Review, a journal I absolutely love! Thanks to editor, Michael Robins, and poetry editor, Gwenyth Wheat, for giving “Copyist” such a kind home and for inviting me to speak about my process in crafting it (included in the replies)! Check it out, friends! 💙

I'll be doing a reading at St. Peter's Muenster, SK on Feb. 26 at 7pm. Come check it out, either in person, or via Zoom! stpeterscollege.ca/blog/book-pr...

Reading through Sourav Roy and Tuhin Bhowal’s fine anthology of contemporary Hindi poetry, PERENNIAL, I was stopped cold by Seth Michelson’s razor-sharp translation of Rati Saxena’s devastating “Refugee”—a poem for our time, for all times. “…like kites holding tight / to the ruins…”

Another perfect poem for February from @joseolivarez.bsky.social. Get the book, Promises of Gold, here: bit.ly/promisesofgold #poem #booksky #writing

Thrilled to have a poem published in this new issue of Prairie Fire!

Leaving home as inherited condition. Displacement as engine of industrial ag. Whatever became of my great-grandmothers. What they became when they landed here. What they thought or believed, couldn’t say, couldn’t do. Our present chews holes in shared memory. This will be my fourth book.

Starting the year with a complicated one - featured today on Poetry Pause @canadianpoets.bsky.social : poets.ca/a-bell-is-a-...

Kudos to @josiahnelson.bsky.social for his excellent short fiction piece in the new issue of Brick! Clever, alchemical, eerie - a great read. @brickliterary.bsky.social

Grateful beyond words that my essay about living in Saudi Arabia during the first Gulf War was selected for Brick 116, which is now out in the world!

Tomorrow in Halifax I am hosting a poetry reading to celebrate two years of my micropress, Opaat Press. This reading will feature more than fifteen poets and is free and open to all. I'd love to see you there! Saturday, November 22, 2-4 pm, Halifax Central Library, Paul O'Regan Hall.

Just came across this lovely poem in my current read, ALL OF THEM ALL OF THEM by Akira Ritos (@fifthwheelpress.bsky.social).

Pleased to have a couple poems in @cv2magazine.bsky.social spring issue. Sharing one here:

And because place calls to place / inside us, he is seventy in the kitchen, / even as he is twelve in the farmyard

Ashbery: in the idea of what time it is

Merwin: thank you for friends and long echoes of them

Grateful and excited to have a poem out with South Dakota Review:
