Happy Birthday Dave.
Hope you are okay.
I thought I'd avoid doing a happy Birthday poem... So have some nonsense instead.

The author credited as "High Meadow Grandmother" is not an individual in the sense that we consider independent thinking people, and though "Grandmother" is a feminine appellation, there is no reason to suggest that the author is of any gender in the way we can concieve of one.

Ah, gallantry....
The feeling of unearned righteousness,
The masquerade of chivalry
The pretence of propperness...
The mark of
A True Hero

I don't think I would ever considered writing a #haibun for this prompt were it not for @daveashleypoet.bsky.social, but I'm quite happy with it...

Or perhaps you want your speculative poetry served with a side of alliteration?
This is J.D. Harlock's "The Blasted Brigade’s Ballistic Bio-Armour".

My poem, "Instructions for Borrowing Time", is now live in Strange Horizons, a Hugo-winning journal of speculative literature.

Nice! A humble suggestion: maybe add a tag to the list description, which might help people coalesce around it (I've seen #sfpoetry and #SpecPoetry used, not sure which one is more popular)

Picture of the cast of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" with the words "The Red Shirt Review" superimposed in bold yellow letters. The bottlecap-inspired logo of "The Daily Drunk" literary journal appears in the lower left-hand corner of the image.
Also had an item inspired by Mr. Spock in your 2022 "Red Shirt Review" anthology. Couldn't find the final product, but did find some of your original call-for-submissions art! #startrek #SFFpoetry #specpoetry

...it's fuckshit until proven otherwise.
I need to wind down and pick this up later, but a thought: i have absolutely no problem putting up redacted copies of my old contracts so folks can see what they look like. #poetry #specpoetry #sff #publishing folk, would that help things?
