I'm truly honored-and shocked— to learn that my manuscript was one of two honorable mentions for the VU Literary Prize! Huge congratulations to Melissa Range, and the other finalists!
You gave me grief, and how to grieve.

Sonnet In the dark room a reliable ocean sounds mix on YouTube replaces day and night with barely -perceptible differences in volume between high and low tide. No birds ever seem to get near the mic, which is like a miracle if the kind of miracle you’re into doesn't have birds in it. In the reliable ocean sounds mix on You Tube’s comments section, there's one guy with no likes or replies saying “Thank you, this video helps my son fall asleep, nothing else has worked as well as this video.”

A Mantra:
Spending money on books doesn’t count
Spending money on books doesn’t count
Spending money on books doesn’t count
… Is it enough
That the dish of milk is set out at night,
That we think of him sometimes,
Sometimes and always, with mixed feelings?
—John Ashbery, from “At North Farm”
One of my favorite “why does this poem make me feel so much?” Poems
Thank you Susan!

Fast Joudah, from […]
wrote this a long time ago, been thinking about it lately 🫠
The wine opener was a silver person who could raise her arms in despair.
ARTIFACT AVE When you see my death, will you tell me? Hold the envelope up to the light? Middle school, beautiful anger, tiny wind in the mouth of a rabbit. Three vultures on the roof one with a foot in the chimney. The ash of little answers I brush out in the spring like your hair
