Blown away to have a poem in the new issue of @pshares! It’s always been a dream journal of mine, and I’m just thrilled to be in the company of so many folks I admire. Enormous thanks to everyone on staff, and to @LailaLalami for selecting this one! ✨
Whenever I identify Will Arnett’s voiceover work, this is approx how I feel.
Kim Yeji, who set a new world record in the women’s 25m pistol back in May, competed in the Olympics and the photos are iconic 🔥🇰🇷

Gotta love when a group chat wakes up, commits, and brainstorms titles for the next dozen Twister movies.

Unreal to see Coachella Elegy reviewed in @washingtonpost Book Club newsletter! And my poem “Quake” reprinted alongside it (originally published in @kenyonreview). Many thanks to @RonCharles for the kind words about the book.
Coworkers still asking how the long weekend was, and I still dunno how to tell them I spent it revising my Slipknot x Vanessa Carlton mashup.

The first poem I wrote in Paris last year is the first poem in the new issue of @WestBranchMag. Thanks to the editors for their generosity in giving this poem a home — a poem that’s just as much about Notre Dame as it is about what lasts in our world, in our lives 💗📚💗

Exclusive:
Israeli soldiers set fire Aqsa University [@AqsaUniversity]’s library in Gaza City and took pictures of themselves in front of the flames.
And with that, pregnant Kim Gordon rocking a John Starks jersey on Letterman is still the best thing to happen to the Knicks in my lifetime. (They could win a million titles and this will still be number 1)

The author Alice Munro has died at 92. “Few contemporary writers are more admired, and with good reason,” James Wood wrote, when she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, in 2013. nyer.cm/g3T3GPx
ALT A quote from the New Yorker staff writer James Wood: “Everyone gets called ‘our Chekhov.’ All you have to do nowadays is write a few half-decent stories and you are ‘our Chekhov.’ But Alice Munro really is our Chekhov—which is to say, the English language’s Chekhov.”

Hyped to share I'll be running the 2024 NYC marathon! To qualify, I'm raising money for @pluspoolny, who are building a public pool in the East River (!) that will filter water and provide swimming initiatives for NYC. Click below to chip in!
