A lot of people are under the mistaken impression that progress means advances in tech. Real progress is kids who are literate, free meals for public school students, a culture in which human art & poetry are celebrated. We're regressing rapidly & the only way forward is to read.

“Isn't that / like us, going from place to / place, looking to be alive?”

This poem appeared in The Trees Witness Everything by Victoria Chang, published by Copper Canyon Press, 2022. Shared here with deep gratitude.
ALT Passage by Victoria Chang Every leaf that falls never stops falling. I once thought that leaves were leaves. Now I think they are feeling, in search of a place— someone's hair, a park bench, a finger. Isn't that like us, going from place to place, looking to be alive?

Once again thinking about these perfect two stanzas from Naomi Shihab Nye’s “Jerusalem”
In the middle of it now and slowing down to savor each word. Brava, @DanushaLameris #poetry
Happy pub day to BLADE BY BLADE by DANUSHA LAMÉRIS (@DanushaLameris)! These poems are luminous missives tossed on the wind asking us to re-enter the world we’ve forsaken, to set foot, as if for the first time, on the green earth and begin again. bit.ly/3y0iVEJ
Great long poem by @bengucciardi in this issue. #poetry
Wonderful poem by @JennyGeorge123

The Snake
Great reading tonight @collwksbooks by @JennyGeorge123, Catherine Barnett & Anne Haven McDonnell. What a privilege to be in the audience listening to this trio. #poetry
Happy pub day to AFTER IMAGE by JENNY GEORGE! In scenes that hover between the ordinary, the imagined, and the unknowable, delivered with George’s sly, meticulous simplicity, AFTER IMAGE asks what lingers in the face of death—and what falls away. #poetry

한 강 Han Kang – awarded the 2024 #NobelPrize in Literature – was born in 1970 in the South Korean city of Gwangju before, at the age of nine, moving with her family to Seoul. She comes from a literary background, her father being a reputed novelist. Alongside her writing, she has also devoted herself to art and music, which is reflected throughout her entire literary production.
Thrilled about this and the friends on here who share the honor and the ones I don’t know I now get to discover! Thank you, WWPH. #poetry #BestoftheNet

Maybe poems
are just complications & yet you can't resist
a little still life lit with grief & wonder.
