Honored to see two of my poems, “Dead Name” and “Trans People of the Past,” featured in the Fall ‘23 issue of @kenyonreview ! Many thanks to @rocketfantastic and @melissafaliveno for including me— this whole issue is a marvel!
“will you respond
when in a voice panicdrunk like a fire alarm
in swoops your mom calling and calling you
something wrong”
Overflowing with surprising imagery, “Dead Name” by @transpoetics made us gasp , and ache, and wonder. Read it here:

@EugeniaLeigh I’d love to participate in conversations about queer and trans poetics, disability/illness in poetry and CNF, literary translation, literature & visual arts, and CW pedagogy.
19 years in a maximum security penal colony. The number of years does not matter. I perfectly understand that, like many political prisoners, I am sitting on a life sentence. Where life is measured by the term of my life or the term of life of this regime.
The sentencing figure is not for me. It is for you. You, not me, are being frightened and deprived of the will to resist. You are being forced to surrender your country of Russia without a fight to the gang of traitors, thieves, and scoundrels who have seized power. Putin must not achieve his goal. Do not lose the will to resist.
