"The Old West" and "Black Canyon Night" New Poetry from The Metropolitan Review

Thanks to the Metropolitan Review for publishing my poem “The Old West.” www.metropolitanreview.org/p/the-old-we...

Tweet from the Anti-Defamation League, or ADL: This is a delicate moment. It's a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed, and social media only adds to the anxiety. It seems that @elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge. In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath. This is a new beginning. Let's hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead. 5:52 PM • Jan 20, 2025

This is so bad

Weird to find my Insta account suddenly following Trump and Vance — even though I took no steps to follow them. I’m sure it’s just a glitch 🙄. Right, Mark?
