I can be terribly slow sometimes, but v grateful to have had a poem in beautiful @DustmagPoetry a while back 🤍

[Dust Poetry @DustmagPoetry]

“In the second our story unfolds like/ 
nesting dolls of unease. It still begins in/
childhood, but here we are hampered/
by personality and circumstance.”

@LisabelleTay sets out three different lives in today’s poem ‘Two out of three’.

I wrote this story in one quick burst last June. It’s about female friendship, artistic ambition, and a little bit of Macbeth magic in Edinburgh — city of my heart! It placed runner up in @sewaneereview’s annual contest and now it’s finally here 🎃

Though digitizations are much better quality now, in terms of resolution and colour fidelity, there is something lovely about digitizations from filmstrips. These are from Bodleian Library MS. Douce 219: https://t.co/kZdCVbjclc

Poetry is not about language, but about what happens when language gets impossible.

Maggie Nelson's description of her own editing process is so elegant in its logic
