His brilliance always felt ❤️

Rest in poetry my love 😢💔🥹

Uncovering his short notes / poems brings me closer to him, this one especially today 🙏❤️

REST IN POETRY & PEACE MY LOVE - FOR LARRY SAWYER 💔😢🙏🦋 larrysawyerpoet.me/about/

To grieve without projection. This is my work to do. To allow anger to flow through at the abruptness of his departure. The doctors who did not pursue his heart issues. To defy cancer only to succumb to something likely preventable.

Yellow Springs, Ohio. Rest in peace & poetry my love 💔

Amsterdam 2019 with Larry 💔

The last poem L posted online was about our quick trip to Ottawa. He had a good time, as he had never been (I showed him The Glebe, where my aunt lives, and Parliament Hill). It was an unusually warm and sunny February day.

Friends & poets who knew Larry Sawyer: from Chicago to Toronto to Ohio to California to New York: it is with a heavy heart that I share the news that Larry has crossed over. He was the light of my life and touched so many. He will be deeply missed. Please read: www.gofundme.com/f/larry-sawyer

People on the left need to start getting crafty. If the reich wants to fuck shit up, we need to fuck their plans up. youtu.be/2WHFTRArC44?... @youranoncentral.bsky.social

Good morning. Fuck fascism.

Yeah

This is not a peace negotiation. This is the beginning of a US-russian alliance. All that's left is for the US to commit troops to help the weak russian army conquer Ukraine and remove Zelensky. Forget the betrayal; it was expected. This is pathetic US deference to the weak russian dictatorship.

Digging thru old screengrabs, photos, etc. Found this review of my book, A Neon Tryst, on HTMLGIANT. Thanks to August Evans for the review and Shearsman Books (Tony Frazer) in the UK for publishing my ekphrastic poetry.

Found this photo of happier poetry times at Danny’s in Chicago. Deeply good reading series run by Joel Craig. Simone would often DJ soul and new wave nights and we’d often run into so many great people there. (AD in the background, Traudi with us that night).

Hey fellow Ontarians: if you don’t want a 🍊 buddy who is destroying our province, under investigation, building luxury spas, and wasting your tax dollars on unnecessary elections, vote him out. YOU MUST REGISTER (even if you think you’re registered). Go to: www.elections.ca/home.aspx
