“I am ever a student of forgiveness—how it is experienced, how it is wielded, [ . . .] . It is not, as I was taught, closure, but rather an opening—the beginning of complex, difficult work.” —Marci Calabretta Cancio-Bello @MarciCalabretta #AboutThisPoem poets.org/poem/houseguest

Forgiveness was sitting  in your  kitchen when  you got home, and now rests elbows  on the table to  watch you reach  for a knife. ––Marci Calabretta Cancio-Bello @MarciCalabretta #PoemADay poets.org/poem/houseguest

"I had always considered myself a slow and careful writer, but shepherding someone else’s work requires attention and care I had never afforded my own work in quite the same way." Don't miss this interview at @TupeloQ w/ past ALTA mentee @MarciCalabretta: bit.ly/3OyWE5j

Maureen Seaton (@mseaton9) was voted Miami’s Best Poet in 2020. She passed away yesterday at 75. Through her teaching, poetry, kindness & generosity, she has touched so many people in Miami & beyond. It would be amazing to see our community pay her tribute as she deserves. ❤️

Just finished another great @HugoHouse class and am inspired to work on writing ✍️ (but I have to get ready to go to my office to do my other work; my paying work, LOL) Thank you, @MarciCalabretta! #writing #poetry #poetrycommunity
