Omg yeeeeeee 🥹🥹🥹

A Bob Sykora poem opens the door for longing and then leans into love, but my every impulse when I arrive at longing is not to lean into possibility of love but to pull hard on the e-brake and fishtail into how improbable love is.

I tried to write a @bobsykora.bsky.social poem. Is this a Bob Sykora poem? Not really, but I was reading Utopians in Love by Bob Sykora and I said, "I want to write a Bob Sykora poem" and this was the result.

wow I missed so much not logging on here

turn this into a 15 minute lecture and zoom into my class

do i want to be on here more???

Long Week Talking I am ashamed to keep thinking of death as a chute that connects to the garbage. I know I should picture it more like the pneumatic tubes at banks of the past: you put in your name and your paper and up you go. I know a bank should be the operative metaphor for every facet of existence, every time. When I fail to liken anything to a bank, I must be tired. That's not the real me; that's the long week talking. Time for bed. Time for the open window and my head on the narrow pillow. The hectoring sky. The streetlight's beam is bright as the bright saved people see when they die, but I don't die—

from the preposterously great Stay Dead by Natalie Shapero

continued story graph page for utopians in love with 4.33 star review and 100% fast pace scores

100% of the 4 reviews of my book on storygraph say it’s fast paced so it’s probably an excellent choice for the sealey challenge 💁🏻‍♂️

Utopias Everywhere: An Interview with Bob Sykora I’ve been hearing about Bob Sykora, his work, and the things he gets up to for years. He was in the cohort that left the spring before I started an MFA at UMass Boston, and everyone spoke so …

I had a chance to talk to @bobsykora.bsky.social about his WONDERFUL book, Utopians in Love, and @vol1brooklyn.bsky.social was kind enough to publish that conversation. Check it out below!!
