The Spam Poetry of @diegoespiritu.bsky.social static1.squarespace.com/static/665df...

Diego Espíritu Chávez is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Spanish Language and Literature at the University at Buffalo, focusing on poetics and visual writing.

Still hearing Notley's protean voices from her reading in Buffalo. There won't be another. Went looking for older Buffalo connections and came up with...this?

paperview books has published 5 of my titles and does astonishing work. Please support the press as they recuperate from flooding: paperviewbooks.pt/books/author...

My author copies of Spires/Spines, poems & objects from 2009-12, have arrived. Thanks Paperview Books/Sal! There'll be a tiny few for sale at the creative conversations event with Nicky Melville at Glasgow Uni memorial chapel today. Or go to paperviewbooks.pt/books/spires...

I loved these questions and this conversation--drop in for a discussion of the naming of the Pictures Generation, semiotics in the work of Andrew Topolski, how to be both artists and partners, and much more.

Very sad day in Buffalo and huge loss for the community. Heard a WBFO live report from the mayor's press conference while I was driving home from work, and when the names were reported my first reaction was disbelief. Here's what the Buffalo News is reporting so far.

Tomorrow. Bring your favorite piece of trash. Really. We're going to build a pile.

This week on the Buffalo area literary scene.

@diegoespiritu.bsky.social , Thom Eichelberger-Young, Chango, & Ann Pedone reading in Buffalo last night
