Another poem on World AIDS Day. Today is the 1st time since 1988 that the US will not recognize this day.
Poem is from my @smallharborpub.bsky.social KINKY tribute chapbook, NEVER PICKED FIRST FOR PLAYTIME. Inspired by a convo w/ a friend.

The current Republican administration is not recognizing that today is World AIDS Day. In fact, this administrationβs policy choices show us that the Republican administration doesnβt care about HIV prevention or individuals with AIDS.

With the acceptance of the debut full-length and shopping a collaborative chapbook, I was feeling lost about my next book. However, this week the topic for the next chap came to me, and I wrote what may be the first poem of that chap. To research and writing!
