The mangrove arches it's back, quiet authority fed by a shifting tidal river. It's knees rise from decomposing land, giving shelter to the snakes that swim underneath. #Poetry #PoetrySky #OddPoems

This increasingly hostile Romanticism blankets the first of May in frost; this imagined purity of dirty hands reaching for a ring revealed a charlatan sufficient for questioning the questioner. #Poetry #PoetrySky

gonna try something new, have a bunch of titles in need of their poems and I never go that way, for me it is normally write → poem → then title. Anyway, maybe it is a series just making fun of famous works in the title because most are playing off famous poems / works of art #Poetry #PoetrySky

Poetry is truer than history

Had a kid way back when and they were adopted, maybe this is a conversation I would have with her if we ever met #Poetry #PoetrySky #Poem

Hard to write about food, should be easier, but I got something now I didn't have 2 hours ago We want to be more alive and sometimes that means cherry pie on a Friday afternoon in May. #Poem #PoetrySky #Poetry forgot alt had to repost

I miss New Orleans, lotta poetry lurking in them streets #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoetrySky #Poem

almost done with #nationalpoetrymonth, feel like this is advice to myself #NaPoMo #Poetry #PoetrySky

poetry is pushback against the violence in the world

Thinking about 2 Timothy and also how I never mention technology that existed before 1975. I took this month as a chance to try and break out of my comfortable spaces. I give myself a 7/10 for that goal over the last 28 days. #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoeterySky #Poetry

Sunday night and I am still at we gotta get out of this place Have a greta week everyone #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #Potery #PoetrySky

Actually got a lot of sleeping in last night, woke up and this was there #NaPoMp #NationalPoetryMonth #Potery #PoetrySky

Listening to [redacted], thinking about [redacted] #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #Poetry #PoetrySky

Jazz Fest starts this week. I miss New Orleans #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoetrySky #Poetry

Not only can we write about the messy, we really must write about what is unspoken #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #Poetry #Poem

Because going live at 4:30 am outside Baltimore is how we roll New video up on one of my favorite poems Check it out and like, subscribe and comment youtube.com/live/Bh5jsZc...

It was quick and painless This poem is in dialogue with Nietzsche (from The Gay Science as best as I can remember it). Poetry is as close to God as we may know and without it there is a collapse of a shared source of meaning. #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoetrySky #Poem

This has been around since the mid 90s as a prose poem. It got a facelift this morning while thinking about how offering to share a dream is risky because desire is complicated and paradise can feel like a trap once you are inside it. #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #Poetrysky #poem

Thinking about grief #NaPoMo #nationalpoetrymonth #Poetry #Poetrysky

One of my apocalyptical revisions of our history that is probably true #nationalpoetrymonth #NaPoMo #Poetry #PoetrySky

Always felt like you don't write a poem as much as participate in it's creation. This touches on that and also the idea of beauty (and how Americans have abandoned beauty for wealth, tech, power, and entertainment) #nationalpoetrymonth #PoetrySky #NaPoMo #poetry

Without #poetry culture dies #PoetrySky

or use the hour and write it out, what ever it is #Potery #PoetrySky #Poem

Wanted to revisit something old because I thought it was factually wrong. Went to the trusty field guide for insects, opened it, flipped a few pages and landed on what I wanted. Turns out I was wrong. The poem then became something else #PoetrySky #Poetry #Poem

Not sure where this came from, needs a title (maybe) #Poetry #PoetrySky Y'all have a good week coming up

memoir day, feel like I nailed this "Our marriage had ended without announcement. Time fragmented. Life was organized around concealment. Cocaine doesn’t destroy everything at once, it rots trust, the appetite erasing memory, self-regulation an after thought. It wasn't a disaster."

Was challenged to go completely experimental for a #poem so I went with a visual poem (maybe it has a name in academia 🤷‍♂️) Visual Sonnet 1: The Secret Life Of Tobacco Mosaic Virus #poetry #PoetrySky

I guess today was the day. Can't say I ever wrote directly about being molested before, it has always creeped in to some poems, but not like this. There’s no moral hesitation anymore and I am allowed to feel what is often socially forbidden: relief at an abuser’s death. #Poetry #PoetrySky
