Hey friends, my chapbook, which I’ve been drafting, revising, refining and sending out for about four years, has just been published. My first collection of #poems, I’m chuffed, as the British say, for you to read it! bottlecap.press/products/cloud

@JRoseThinks @QuintonLucasKC Hmmm, my dude, isn’t your critique of the mayor’s word choice in-and-of-itself a misdirection away from the principle founding his argument?

@QuintonLucasKC Just make your (valid) argument, stop with the ad hominems. “Bro” is condescending, polarizing, and unnecessary.

Cuts by Elon Musk continue to devastate American communities like Kansas City. Ivanhoe recently had funding eliminated that supports urban food production, backyard gardeners, local growers, an inner city farmer’s market, and resources to provide healthy food to young mothers.

God, my gmail’s predictive text editor just autocorrected “Lyn Hygenian” with “Lyn Hegel” with the confidence of a teenager who’s certain he knows more than you about poetry and Continental Philosophy.

Invention pitch #37: an iPhone case that has the fine-grains-beneath-the-fingers feel of a Vintage paperback, circa 1999.

What I love most about tech from the past fifteen years or so: You can totally drive around talking to yourself, making impassioned arguments, searching up evidence, and those in passing cars just assume you’re on bluetooth. #oldpersonrealization

Drive, 1982 There is no new thing under the sun but the ever-reviving lives our losses foster, like the white-bloused girl wading cotton north of Dunn who looked up the moment that I lost her. Christian Wiman Image courtesy @MarcusMy3rs

This man has never read my poetry. But he thinks I'm too intellectual for "the people." In fact, he quotes, the reason poetry is only read by 12% of Americans, is because of its "high falutin" ways. The demand for mediocrity & capitalism's idea of poetry's worth is depressing.
