The Sacrifice of Small Things - phoebe Robert Mata We fished all summer. My father taught me to bait a hook with a worm, then a minnow, then a crayfish. Learning torture like Russian dolls, each body a grosser, wider death. The cooler fill...

Thrilled to have a new poem, "The Sacrifice of Small Things," in the newest edition of phoebe!

This year, I read far fewer books - and for more essays written by AI - than I would have preferred.

But I ended the year on a strong note, wrapping up Giovanni's Room, devastated and inspired by Baldwin and the power of human language.

To transcend, to unite, to confess, to promise, to feel.

a NEW year?! didn’t we just have one already 😅

I got paid $30 for a poem today, which is, by my assessment, equivalent to at least $300 in normal job money. 😎
