On Ink Node

My poem JUST BORN, A TWILIGHT OF DOORKNOBS, THREE BULBS was recently featured on Ink Node. That was really cool.

It was even cooler (and inexplicable) to find out I’m one of the most-read authors on Ink Node. The eighth most-read, apparently. Which means my poems know a lot more people than I do.

So, yeah, a big thank-you to everyone out there who is reading. It means something, even if it shouldn’t.

Here are some poems I’ve found on Ink Node that are awesome and I wouldn’t have encountered otherwise, probably:

Brian Christian’s Meditation at Ripton: A poem that clubs you as soon as you step inside.

Lucy Ives’ View (Red Flowers):  It started an argument between my boyfriend and I about what a poem can be vs what a poem should be.

Hannah Gamble’s Everything That’s Alive Stays That Way: This poem hit me in the gut. Kind of like how James Tate’s The Ghost Soldiers beat me up everyday after work last week. The war really IS everywhere.

Ink Node is trying to raise money to cover hosting costs right now. You should help them if yr able by donating at this link.

Brooklyn, this Friday

Friday, October 23

7 pm @ Pete’s Candy Store

709 Lorimer Street, Williamsburg, Brooklyn

I’m reading at Pete’s Candy Store in Brooklyn with Paige Taggart, Sharon Dolin, & Esther K. Smith. The reading series is called The Multifarious Array- it’s curated by Sommer Browning.

I haven’t been to NYC in awhile- it’s going to be a lot of fun.

I wish I had a picture for this post. Here’s one:

A Poet, A Movie, A Bug

Best things to have happened to my brain in the last couple months, maybe more, maybe forever:

Poet: Eric Baus

Movie: La mujer sin cabeza by Lucrecia Martel

Bug: The clockbug from The Ark Sakura by Kōbō Abe
