Jacaranda season 🐕

My second-favorite @uchicagopress.bsky.social book gets a nice feature on its 50th birthday. I re-read A River Runs through It most summers.

Enjoy the opening lines—and listen to readings!—of our latest #PageOne books: Hungered by Amanda Rizkalla, Surety by Anna Zumbahlen, The Memory Museum by M Lin, and The Evolution of Fire: Essays on Crisis and Becoming by Angela Pelster. Delve in: at.pw.org/PageOne2026x3

A gift to be read by @maggiesmithpoet.bsky.social (thank you!!), whose words about this poem feel intimately true to the way I think about poetry: a way of memorizing moments. ❤️

Every morning I wake up and immediately read something that makes me say "Jesus Christ that's bleak" in a completely different key of bleak than the day before and in some ways that's remarkable

I am delighted to have an excerpt from my forthcoming book, Surety, featured in Ambient Receiver issue 3. This issue—this whole magazine—is so beautiful and thoughtfully curated. www.ambientreceiver.org/iss3

OH MY GOD THE POEM IS TODAY

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

Grateful for the extra purple dusk we had in the desert tonight

“I wish one could press / snowflakes in a book like flowers.” James Schuyler, written from his room in the Payne Whitney Clinic, fifty years ago today.

What are some of the examples of mutual aid, solidarity and self-organizing, improvised community support you've seen in the L.A. fires? Thanks!
