@biancastone @POETSorg Robt. Frost was an awesome inauguration for The State of Poetry in Chester, Vt. on a bluebird of a day. Learning to reckon with paradox is lifelong learning! So glad to have Robert on the wrestling team.

The laureate project is here. I begin at our beginning with the giant. The focus will be on the words, the poems; their purpose will be to see what we can glean from the event of the poem itself, as it might shed strange light upon the darkest of times. Laureate-fellow @POETSorg

While he was writing ULYSSES, Joyce told his friend Frank Budgen that he’d spent eight hours working on a single sentence. The sentence: “The heaventree of stars hung with humid, nightblue fruit.”

Poetics as a way of life… ♥️

Naomi@naomi_elias

"our communities require that we are thinking very big about what’s possible, and we can’t do that unless we step out of the enclosure." I interviewed poet & professor Camonghne Felix about her new book, Let the Poets Govern, for @ElectricLit electricliterature.com/finding-our-po…

@biancastone Thank you so much for making spaces and art where crying, thinking, feeling, educating, creating, and commentating are of primary importance to our role modeling a cogent, morally coherent, way forward. Bless and keep you!

@biancastone Human folly & evil seem inevitable. The cultural mercenarization of warfare capitalism coupled assault upon public humanities, arts, and education tests the strength of our fabric as a working system. We need to create, educate, and adjudicate to the best of our abilities!

I am driving through DC right now and I cannot stop crying. I cannot bear this country. I am so ashamed. We cannot come back from this.

Imagine having a national literature built on Beowulf, Chaucer, Shakespeare, and Milton and considering it problematic.

The Culturist@the_culturist_

The UK government flagged these books (among others) as potential signs of far-right extremism. List includes Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, Hobbes' Leviathan, Milton's Paradise Lost. You may be an extremist if you've read these. What else would you add to the list?

It’s negative five degrees outside and there’s a morning glory about to bloom in my kitchen. Never underestimate that good will come from cold times and darkness. Even the littlest light is enough for beauty to rise.

@biancastone You might say crows watched over me/ taking turns walking the rails of my crib/singing, heads bobbing, /black throat ripping.// At sunrise they carried me wild purple grapes./ We shared black raspberries on the thorn/ in the evenings./
