Sellout Poet Made Over $150 In 2023 Alone bit.ly/40za6vK
Going through my Notes app and adding cuttings to the long poem I've been working on and came upon this fragment: "Defenestration is a wonder bug" 🤷♂️
What if I started a bank that borrowed money to buy student loans and ended up bankrupt after forgiving everyone’s loans?
Thanks @justinmarkspb ! Good seeing you in Seattle...hope to make it out to NY later this year!
Diving into my AWP stack. Have read and LOVED these books so far. @BlackOceanOrg Alicia Mountain, @poemostar and @check4charles

This year's poetry goal is to create a moment in one of my long poems as surprising and satisfying as the "Aww Yeaaah" at 4:51 in Primal Scream's "Loaded."
If you’re in Portland next week for @literaryarts Book Festival, come say “hi.”
