Weekly in April, Split This Rock is sharing poetry playlists on grief curated from The Quarry. This week’s playlist, “Grief & Liberation: LGBTQ Lives,” centers LGBTQ poets and their poems that magnify and extoll trans and queer joy, dignity, and community: bit.ly/3G2hpTq
Split This Rock’s red logo appears at the top of a white square. With the logo and bold text beneath, the graphic reads “Split This Rock Presents A Poetry Playlist.” Below the heading a black rectangle with rounded corners and a red shadow contains bold white text with the playlist’s title “Grief and Liberation: LGBTQ Lives” with red rewind, play, and fast forward icons. Behind the rectangle, there are thin concentric geometric lines which peek out at the top and bottom. A URL to Split This Rock’s website is in the lower right-hand corner: splitthisrock.org.

Today is #autismacceptance day, and April is both poetry month and autism acceptance and celebration month. I'm thrilled to be representing Team Autism while reading with @pswordwoman and @biancastone for the April installment of @seampoetryreading.

I dropped out of my MFA & have a published book of poems & a novel coming out this year! Also MANY journal publications before I went to that program for a year.

One of my students doesn’t 100% believe you can get published without an MFA. Please raise your hand, share your story, your links, and help show her the many, many paths a writer’s life can take!

Wrote an opposite-day poem about my family. A kind of wish-list for less queerphobia, more money, another landscape, more tenderness. For @commonmag. thecommononline.org/family-o…

Family of Origin Rewrite: 1982

I love that writing poetry lifted me out of intense grief and 10 pages of those poems brought me my first decent salary this year

what I'm trying to tell you is that there's a very influential book that argues for the "mandating" trans people "out of existence" (verbatim) and that this book was edited by Adrienne Rich

If this is the wrong language for job postings, and I accept that it is, what's a good example of better/ non-ableist language? "We seek someone who can..."? "We seek someone whose talents include..."? "Capacities include..."?

People often tell me my poems feel so layered and evoke synesthesia. Yes, it is because I have autism and so do my poems. Poems are the marble by which I make sense of sensory overload or awe. The beauty remains.

Beyond gay. Queered. I was a verb. An action. A past tense active verb porque I was always queer, other. I am an epidemic child, not birthed but raised by AIDS. —Oli Rodriguez @olirodriguez1 bit.ly/2HkljM3

The space on the page that doesn't have the words of the poem printed on it is not blank space: it is paratext.
