@allisonjoseph Oh no, Allison, please don't feel bad about grieving. Grief is so hard already. Love to you.

Thank you, Bennington MFA, for finding and posting this lyric essay. I was a poet who got to study CNF one semester with the great Sven Birkerts.

“[C]hickens are, there is no better way to say it, fascinating. They’re winged dinosaurs. Tasty winged dinosaurs.”

@Lesliemcgrath (Poetry ‘05) published the lyric essay “The Persistence of Chicken” in @grist Journal.

@realDonaldTrump @djaycameron I agree with Senator Chris Murphy. You're toxic. And I'm unfollowing.

[Leslie McGrath @Lesliemcgrath]

@esmewang Yes, it's a bad day for that. I send strength

@MiekeEerkens @realDonaldTrump That's what it looks like to so many of us. He must be hearing the galloping hooves of justice approaching.

Oh my stars! Just got a call from @YeatsSociety of New York. I won 1st place in the 2019 Yeats Poetry Prize judged by @Lesliemcgrath! Almost didn't pick up because I didn't recognize the number. OMG! I'm going to New York! #yeats #poets #poetry #prize #poem #poetrylovers #NewYork

@rgay I admire you so much. My wish for you is to have more time doing what you love with who you love.

Indifference. It's cruelty with a manicure.

@realDonaldTrump For the love of all that is truly American, resign. Now.
