Really impressive poems at the @cafewriters.bsky.social event tonight: the dark & punchy poems of @livtuckwrites.bsky.social & the witty & sharply observed work of @tomsastry.bsky.social. Enjoyed reading the poem Earth Giant from my debut @brokensleepbooks.bsky.social collection at the open mic too.
