Sonnet I will walk again in the primordial forest: on repeat, to keep it primordial, because in the beginning forest is chorus. How much more singing till I meet my good spouse Death? When, when I say Death, will I finally speak of my full self, a unison of bots? This is the rule of ghosts. They endure as much as they're remembered and carry loss like a song. This is the loam on the forest floor, the ongoing of the unremembered and those remembered wrong.
poetry alert! I'm finally doing a book event for OtWttPoFR here in Philadelphia on March 8. please come thru! event info on poster and its alt text.
so grateful to Jason Mitchell for including me at Frank O'Hara's Last Lover with this amazing lineup while I've been coping with medical issues
