Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

"The touch of their bodies, I would never think of marble"

I love the way this poem by @megmcdermott92.bsky.social warms up a sort-of ekphrasis.
POEM 282: "Looking at the Photo, I Remember an Episode of America’s Next Top Model" by Megan McDermott (@megmcdermott92.bsky.social )

"where contestants had to pretend to be living
statues, staying very still as pigeons landed
on their heads and arms."

I read 2 poems this year that made me immediately buy the respective collections and then some: Marie Howe's "Magdalene: The Addict" (1/2)

He is the pasture where the lambs play, /
He is the stones that make the brook sing, /
He is the breath, I am the flute, /
Together our fingers shape the notes.

I'd been knocking on @psalteryandlyre.bsky.social 's door for a long time, and I was so honored that they chose to publish "Sea Glass, Yellow Basket" -- my 2nd BotN nom is just the icing on the cake. Thanks to Millie and her team! You can read it here:

This is what ICE does to unarmed, traumatized civilians not in their custody and posing no physical threat. Now imagine what they do to detained immigrants.
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

This poem would have made a perfect epigraph for The Last Analog Teenagers! Love this BotN-nominated piece by @maudiemichelle.com
And here's the poem. 🥰

So glad this piece landed with @reckonreview.bsky.social -- I've admired both their literary publications and their terrific Wind and Root columns for a while now.
New fiction at Reckon this morning. Check out "Resurrection Drive" by Abigail Myers.

Just finished Ethan Hawke and Me by @andrewbertaina.bsky.social and really enjoyed it. Tackles tough topics with honesty but hard-earned hope while taking a rich stroll through the lovely Before films.

As a fellow '90s teen, this piece gave such lovely and sad chills. @pleomorphic2.bsky.social captured how this album felt so perfectly.
@nffr.bsky.social had a call on the theme “Ten”. I was a teen in the 90s. Only one thing came to mind. Thanks for reading 🙏🏾 newflashfiction.com/i-know-somed...

Conventional wisdom recommends against reading one's own reviews, and while I strenuously avoided doing so for my mental health, I am not sure if you can be a self-promoting indie author and keep it up indefinitely. (This is to say, review thread incoming.)
