IT IS HERE! How terrifying to hold this first full length in my hands, physical and strange, and wow how terrifying to realize it will now be READ. Does a first book feel this way for everyone?? @TTUPress @rmennies

@MarkEtWords @TTUPress @rmennies I'm sorry I missed this! I've been avoiding X for a while, now. Thank you! Missing Tyrone -- the poetry community lost an incredible person <3.

It's pretty easy to call this number: 202-224-3121, ask to be connected to your congressperson's office, give them your name and zip code and say:

"I'm calling to ask my representative to call for an immediate ceasefire and allow aid into Gaza. Thank you."

Adoring/finding enormous hope in this poem by @mobrowne over at @poetrymagazine:

"Each bone of our flesh-homes sings welcome

O look at the Gods dancing
as the rain reigns against a steely skyline"
