Inviting the guy who lost 90 family members to convince him it’s still better than Trump is on a level beyond deranged and I don’t have the words for it.

Yikes, i haven't logged onto Twitter in such a long time and there's a poetry twitter situation today 😬 I don't know why people can't just be nice? And happy for others? Somebody else's work existing doesn't have to be a problem for you 😕
Such good advice. I can't believe I never thought of it!

i keep thinking about what Martin Luther King, Jr. said about the white moderate—really the white liberal or progressive today. all expression of (increasingly vague) concern. concerned, horrified, shocked, confused, heartbroken. but what about principled? engaged in struggle?
@monaeltahawy Only minorities are expected to take collective responsibility in this way. When do we insist (for example) that yt Christian men personally disavow mass shooters? It's selective guilt by association, and we should reject the double standard.
This is so true. There are so many stories I've started that turn out differently than I imagined. It feels weird but magical?

POETRY — derived from Poe, Edgar Allan: among the first to think they could earn a living by writing + try: to attempt something important = an attempt to accomplish something important, which unfortunately won’t earn you enough money to survive.

This solitary-stanzaed ghazal Agha Shahid Ali wrote for his mother just keeps popping into my head. I hope it opens up for you the way it keeps opening for me.
i spoke to my gazan friend; their homes have been destroyed. he told me "im not upset about the stupid house, im upset at the fact that my dad was born in 49 in a refugee tent and after tiring himself to build a life and home, he will now die in a refugee tent" #Palestine

What if we just wrote our little poems and didn't try to squash other poets?
Some weirdo decided to get mad at the DM account on FB because I said we were anti AWP but didn't hold her hand through explaining the years of problematic awp shit If you don't know by now you don't care to know so why does it matter?
Wait…I’m going to be in Philly next week. Should I bring Leonard home? He looks so sweet.
Leonard is one of the sweetest cats we have ever met. Any time someone passes his kennel he is sure to greet them with a chirping meow and outstretched paws. But, sadly, once potential adopters turn to see him, they leave the room with quiet snickers and whispers.
gender euphoria is so stupid cuz I spend hundreds of dollars trying to find clothes that make me feel ok inside my body & then the free shirt from a writing conference ends up being the winner

Inviting the guy who lost 90 family members to convince him it’s still better than Trump is on a level beyond deranged and I don’t have the words for it.
Oh my God. 90 family members: "Tariq Haddad, a cardiologist based in Virginia who has lost nearly 90 family members in Gaza got the invitation from the State Department last Friday about the off-record roundtable discussion, but ultimately declined." huffpost.com/entry/palestin…
Also, no poem was every good because of its form, or rather how closely it followed the rules of its perceived form. If a poem is “technically” sound but does nothing to disrupt or please the spirit, it’s failing as a poem.
This is ungenerous and rude, and I'm so tired of this sort of rhetoric surrounding poetry. "It doesn't matter what poetry is, all that matters is how it makes you feel." In what other artistic profession does it make sense to malign those who take an interest in the craft?

Thought my dentist appointment was yesterday and that I’d missed it by thinking it was actually today. …It was actually today. Anyway, I can still get ready in 7 minutes if anyone was wondering.
My toddler finished his yogurt than asked me for some of mine and when I showed him that I'd already finished mine, he furrowed his brow, raised his little plastic spoon to the sky, started muttering furtively under his breath and then pointed it at me. In short, nice knowing u
Peabo Bryson just liked a story of mine on IG, so I guess I can go to bed now.
For the poets: how does heartbreak affect your writing? What does it do to your process?
