Great news. A poem by my fellow Gazan poet Nasser Rabah is published by The New Yorker this morning. The poem was translated, from the Arabic, by Emna Zghal, Khaled al-Hilli, and Ammiel Alcalay for the Brooklyn Translation Collective.

Get used to working in the ruins. It’s where most of us already live. The myth of functioning empire is over. We live like rats here, but we are no longer blind to our predicament. Welcome to the collapse. *** (Not a poem, in case of confusion. Just a call to face reality.)
He has no intentions to legitimately win the election. He’s turning away anyone who isn’t MAGA enough. The loyalty tests are to weed out the people who stymied his attempts to steal the election in 2020. People who put country before Trump. The “rigged and stollen” drumbeats…

@bearspeaks Of course, Lack of Action Man was what his mates dubbed him because of his persistent lack of girlfriends (which was one motivation for his starting the band, but in the end he realised it was just too much hassle with very little chance of success)
@bearspeaks Aspirational Mid-Life Skateboard is the name of the band he once started with some mates (had three rehearsals before breaking up cos they couldn't be arsed)
@bearspeaks Is that a skateboard in pic 2? Seems far too dynamic.

Ugh. These Rock ‘n’ Roll gammons are ten-a-penny. The fascist regime made him a moron. ‘Illegals’ indeed. In the words of Jello Biafra: ‘Nazi punks, f**k off.’
John Lyndon suggesting seaside towns are crap now because of migrants. So the boarded up shops, piled up rubbish, lack of investment, lack of local services, shit in the sea, and the regularly cancelled trains to get there are migrants’ fault, are they?

Michael Sheen’s far-left agitprop drama, The Way, which imagines a civil uprising in Wales over the future of the Port Talbot steelworks (brutally out down by a fascist England, of course), is one of the BBC’s biggest drama flops ever. Even though it was on BBC1, only 697,000…
I don't know this person but the world of poetry is not so large that someone does not know this person. One of you folks in the universe of poetry/poem-making has to know who this person is and I would hope you get them together or aid some folks who will make this right.
Gaia Thomas, a disabled writer who is a self-claimed expert in cultural awareness, health and empowerment—is currently freezing funds for Palestinians in active genocide after befriending them, raising funds and deleting her contacts with ominous text such as “the best of luck.”
I have asked my lawyers to take the first steps in commencing legal proceedings against Nigel Farage, following a highly defamatory statement about me. We are a movement for peace — and we cannot stand by and let these disgusting and malicious lies go unchallenged.
