I’ve always appreciated @poetrynw as a home for my work. This poem, “In the Park,” is about care and tenderness and loneliness in the months and years after we lost my dad — we’re lucky to be doing much better these days. Thanks to the whole PNW team 💗📚💗 [PS love you mom 🦆]

I can't believe how lucky I was today to record an episode of the Sewanee Review podcast with @whiteside_jim, hang out with the incredible @sewaneereview staff, and join Dr. Stephanie McCarter for a Classics-focused keynote on Helen of Troy, 1993. Sewanee, you are so good to me.

Growing up, this clock was in my dad’s office. He’s not around to see it, but now it’s in mine 💗

Dear humans, Just wanted to share something I've been quiet about, in the year of my usual self-doubt, with gratitude to @sarabandebooks and to many others whom I look forward to thanking in the coming months, MY HERESIES, forthcoming in April 2025. 🖤 sarabandebooks.org/all-titles/p/m…

I met someone recently who worked at a cheese shop that Louise Glück went to almost daily. “What was she like?” I asked. “Well, she wore this hat that was unlike any hat I have ever seen a person wear.”
