Where Have All the Great Poets Gone? Kathleen Jamie on the Giant Tortoises

Before I forget: have read a few What's Wrong With Poetry Today things lately; I think this one gets closer than most to the actual matter, proposing: the culture, broadly, in the anglophone world, no longer (1) identifies and therefore (2) cultivates "great poets"

I wrote a good poem for the first time in 6 months and started reading subs in a somewhat sustainable way. I'm trying to make this into a pithy political post considering where we are at, but I can't truly. The best I got is "Nolite te Bastardes Carborundorum" But it's something. Just do something?

Before we start spiraling remember that we tried. Get rest. Drink "medicine". And if you're not the protesting type like yours truly, you still have to say something. Either here, to a coworker, to a family member, to a spouse, to a cashier. This war doesn't have a big lie. It's just here.

Recovering from narcissistic abuse and pure fascism is um...a lot. But a goal of mine is to get the TAT for this journal to 3 months tops. I also have grad student level essays I want to write. What I'm saying is look at the world as it is and take care of yourselves. This is not normal.
