My poem “Strawberry Thief Singing” from “Empire Ekphrasis,” (Mudlark’17) has been added to the exhibit “Victorian Radicals,” which returned home to Birmingham Museum from Yale University in February. It was very special to hear UK poet Jonathan Davidson recite it.

Nikki Hailey in Israel scribbling "FINISH THEM"on the shells that the IDF is about to fire into Rafah in defiance of the International Court of Justice. Biden provided the shells, Republicans autograph them. The US political class is united in its complicity with this genocide.

Israel forced 1.9 million Palestinians into Rafah — the only “safe zone” left in Gaza — then bombed it.

Every day the world finds new ways to remind me that nothing & i mean NOTHING matters more than Gaza rn. For over 100 days Palestinians have been saying this, urging everyone to put ourselves in the way of the death machine. Everyone continuing "business as usual" is failing.

A love note to #Palestinian men

You're teaching the world about love, courage, truth-telling, tenderness, faith, perseverance, & vulnerability

May God bless you, keep you safe, & unite you in Heaven with your loved ones so unjustly stolen from you.

@katherineschof8 Let the first draft be visceral. Build and refine your instincts as a writer by simultaneously deepening your appreciation for music. The arts are first and foremost visceral and emotional. The reader trusts us if we trust our own emotional response to guide us. The rest follows
