Mostly poetry but also this…

This feels like Jenny Holzer, but I actually don’t know who to credit for it. But it’s where I’m at these days.

I found a tiny little metaphor for resistance.

Audre Lorde:
“We have to consciously to study how to be tender with each other until it becomes habit.”

“Sometimes your job as an artist is to be invited somewhere and ensure they never invite you back.” Bobby LeFebre, Poet Laureate of Colorado.

The bee flies anyway.

Oh no! I actually have followers. Such pressure.

Ok why did I think I had time to post a poem a day???

Wee Dickinson poem for Monday.

This one from Jenny Barber’s new book!

That is exactly what happens to me when an idea for a poem comes in my head. I’m like, this is so good, I won’t forget it. I’ll write it down later. Later…

Here’s another #poem from AQR—do we use hashtags here???

New here. I’ll be posting a poem a day (unless I don’t feel like it). I’ll start with me, because why not? Poets, right!?! And because this poem just published in Alaska Quarterly Review means a lot to me (and my kid). And because a woman was murdered for hanging a 🏳️‍🌈 flag.
