Am in my last week of the academic job—nearly 2 decades in #academia & only 2 months working at an arts non-profit & I still come home amazed by the non-toxic workplace.

Will dearly miss my students tho.

Big thanks to @thefigureone who nominated my poem “Things I Would Tell a Daughter: A Poetics” ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Sometimes being offered tenderness feels like the very proof that you've been ruined.

Have you ever stared at a word and it starts to look like nonsense? You know it’s spelled correctly...but...is it?

Well, there’s a name for that.

[C Kubasta @CKubastathePoet]

A grad student asked me this week, "How do you do the kind of work you want to do without reproducing the unjust power hierarchies of academia?"

I can't, and none of us can, and we should stop pretending like we can be pure radicals inside the academy. 🧵

[C Kubasta @CKubastathePoet]

@MarianWI_Honors Ah, thanks!

he reaches over and he touches you, like a prayer for which no words exist,

[兔兒神 @chenchenwrites]

I work mostly in poetry because it claims to be neither fiction nor non-fiction, because it acknowledges the gap between what really was or is, and what is said about it.

In trying to get people to see your humanity, you reveal just that: your humanity. Your fundamentally problematic nature. All the unique and terrible ways in which people can, and do, fail.
