Me to poetry class: While I'm at AWP, you're to watch Un Chien Andalou. If you are squeamish, feel free to watch with only one eye.

The one grad student taking the class:

Beat me to it by too many hours.

No no— now KH is too weak to have gone to war. Gotta keep up with the official narrative!

Why wouldn't he be on the job? Isn't he doing what Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller paid him to do? Ordered him to do?

Notre Dame Review had asked me to write about my poem in their 60th issue, Southern Accents— which is also the title poem for the book manuscript I'm sending around.

Thanks again to @johannesg.bsky.social for being such a constant support in this world

Lol— I love all of this! And good on you!

I just feel like being Shah of Iran and President of a Venezuela is a lot of work for Marco. Won't someone please think of Marco??

Did you lie and say it gets better? I assume that's most of what parenting is :)

I feel like I'm letting the best in life pass me by.

My joke is ransom notes (from Get Shorty) but it's professional writing.

A class here called "Writing that Pays the Rent" is always a draw. Of course, I teach the opposite 🙂

Yay!!

Shadym!

We'll see :)

There's part of me that's been struggling to not turn bitter, but there's the other part of me that's like...just be as bitter as you wanna be. I figure I'm not winning any congeniality awards either way so :)

For a poet, I cannot help but send some long emails I tell you hwat (not a typo).

I dreamt that I wrote a Bourdain-esque article on pobiz.

Speaking of missing out at AWP, you should come hear @stevehalle.bsky.social read from his new book and @thedaybooks.bsky.social and @arrieuking.bsky.social and so many more (yours truly included).

Don't lie: you know exactly what you did.

haha— no, I at least know my affirmation will never come from pobiz. Or within. But definitely never pobiz 🫶
