@_WorkingStiff How did you know that Squirt was my favorite soda? I used to do "Whiskey Squirts" all the time until sadly I had to give up soda because I was addicted (of course I kept on drinking whiskey). Anyway, hope you dig it, especially the church rapping scene.

A little Wonder Years ekphrasis. And if you like poems about TV shows, there's more where that came from! juneroadpress.com/certain-shelter

I appreciate the faculty member who has an entire pint of the Ben and Jerry’s non-dairy The Tonight Dough in the office fridge. I like to imagine that they teach their classes and then they just go to town on it. Someone knocks on the door and they’re like BUSY, COME BACK LATER

THE FIRE WILL NOT BE SNUFFED OUT BY HURRICANE. THE SWAMP BURNS AGAIN THIS FRIDAY, 4 PM. Spread the word. We've got a whole lot of kindling that needs to go.

it's actually adorable that more than one student yesterday, when asked what they did while the uni was closed because of #Helene and they didn't have power, told me that they wrote poems

The "big lake" is seeing water temperatures that are warmer than ever recorded at this time of year. It’s worth noting, water temperature records only go back to 1995 @LakeSuperior #GreatLakes bringmethenews.com/minnesota-weat…

feels sort of strange to post this while we have a giant tree laying on its side in our front yard, but I had the poem of the day up at Poetry Daily yesterday! I still like poison dart frogs. their toxicity depends on what they’ve been consuming, which seems like a metaphor

Hey all, did not know that my love for Point Break, Road House, and Red Dawn was gonna lead to a book of pomes, but here it is, a gift to y'all. Get your hands on it. Learn some stuff about the man, the myth, the Swayze Mane: tinyurl.com/mrx78ccf
Alien Buddha Press (open for submissions) 🍉@thealienbuddha

In Praise of the Swaze, the new tribute chapbook by (@thedrevlow) Benjamin Drevlow is now available. Check out the link below where you can read Drevlow defend what is essentially less of a mere hairstyle, and more of a phenomenon in TO MULLET OR NOT TO MULLET: AN ASIDE. Below that is a link to the paperback. alienbuddhapress.wordpress.com/2024/09/20/spo… amazon.com/PRAISE-SWAYZE-…

that was a blast. big poet hugs to Jim May & @chelsearathburn for bringing me to yesterday, and to their amazing students who lined up nearly to the door (!!!) to say hello, get a book signed, talk about anxiety, or just let me know that they enjoyed my work 🔥🧠♥️
