So, thanks to @blackboughpoems there are now two non-smiley poet pics of me on the planet, taken three decades apart. Only lesson I can pass on: 30 years of hope and joy can flat wear out a man’s looks! 😂

Extraordinary new work from Joan Naviyuk Kane. I always learn something from her poems, always. No matter how many times I read the lines. So dense, so intelligent, so kinetic.

The new issue of Whale Road Review is fantastic! Super stoked to have a poem in there alongside so many ✨. 👇🏻 whaleroadreview.com/bedell-3/

@JoseHernandezDz That is a tough call. They are all brilliant in their own rights, but I am still partial to The Fire Eater cover.

And sometimes the college radio
comes in clear from Amarillo
and Thom finds an old box of tobacco
and we smoke like kings without a throne,
flicking ash at the coyotes circling the porch.

For #43, we hit the road, “Driving to Thom Young’s House” to fish & smoke, squabbling with coyotes. We hear “Songs for the New War” over crank radios like heartbeats from a shaman’s drum. Check out these 2 excellent poems by @ScottLaudati. Cheers, Scott!🍸 hawkeyemag.com/stories/laudat…

ICYMI, last chance to honor the past.

In #39, we examine the past, lives honored & lives lost, repeating stories in hope of securing them against time, memory, & decay. Pull up a chair & join us at the table. Read “The Old Heads at Camp” & “Memory, Sound Device,”by @jackbedell. Cheers, Jack!🍸 hawkeyemag.com/stories/bedell…

At first, the kids
worried about him whenever
they heard him, but after
a few weeks the sound
became a Sinatra tune
lulling all of us, ushering us gently
from this place somewhere else.
