“Abecedarian poems allow me to dig at the very roots of the English language. It’s why I love books [. . .] that allow me to more deeply discover and use the materialist history of the English language in my writing.”

The American alphabet ends like every American factory ends. Zombies wandering around on Zoom. The new zoology.

When I was a kid older people still called this museum "The Albright" rather than the Albright-Knox. Well now it's my turn. Pilot Field will always be Pilot Field, Rich Stadium will always be Rich Stadium, and the Albright-Knox will always be the Albright-Knox, not "the AKG."

“These poems are at once traces and interpretations of these events, ambiguously; as both a part of this history and a belated representation of it, this writing layers time and refracts its violence.” David Sherman reads "When the Smoke Cleared." lareviewofbooks.org/article/lyric-…

@Bulldogwgr Songs that made us love Sisters of Mercy, Wilco, et al. RIP.

There are songs that made me feel sad as a little kid when I heard them even though I had no real idea why. Wichita Lineman by Glenn Campbell is one. This, from Gordon Lightfoot is another. RIP
