An orange tabby cat with green eyes stares soulfully into the camera. He is sitting with his paws neatly tucked.

Hi, BlueSky #poetry community & #poets. I'm sure this question has been asked before, but I'm making my holiday list & asking family to give me subscriptions to print #litmags. What should be on my subscription wish list? ( #CatTax pic below)

An orange tabby cat wearing a black harness walks through fallen oak leaves on a sunny day. He has white paws. His tail is raised high because he's happy.

Take a break and exhale. My cat Harvey Milkstache is #poetry in motion.

I am terrible about posting here (or anywhere), but I am enjoying the kindness and conversation here on BlueSky, particularly words from #poets and posts about #poetry, which are a balm in difficult times. So as thanks, here is a photo I took of a recent sunrise in the Catskills.

Ah, I needed to hear this today.

Damn. Missed again!

Thank you.

This makes me weirdly happy!

Thank you.

How have I reached this age and not made a Biscoff cheesecake crust? (*starts googling recipes*)

I'm so glad I followed you. These regular hits of good poetry news really brighten up my feed (which I sorely need these days).

The book, Street Cats & Where to Find Them, is sitting on a sunny windowsill overlooking a NYC street.

Here in NYC, we know where to find street cats!

Came here to say this! You beat me to it.

Just when I think we're living in the absolute *worst* timeline, this happens, and I am reminded to live más.

Done

This made my day.

Congratulations!

They aren't just nice. They are magnificent! :)

Really appreciate this list!

If Trump is praising you, you know you've done something wrong.

Done. 2x this a.m. (Love the Swarm reference.)

Vote NO on the CR, and tell the Dems to hold the line.

Put the word out that we're back. Think of us. We open 4/20 for a short window for a print issue in the fall. We want poems, prose, art, comics & beyond. Free to submit, free to read online always, we now pay $150 + comp copies + eternal literary infamy. More prestigious than the Paris Review.

Heartbreaking.

Entering my dream jobs to see what might be involved each week....

Lovely poem. Congratulations on the @rialtopoetry.bsky.social publication! Thanks for sharing it. (I, too, am slowly Leaving meta, and seeing so much beautiful poetry on this platform is making it easier.)
