PLEASE SHARE! I am raising funds for a dear friend and member of the literary as well as arts communities.

$5 and $10 goes a long way! Reshares even further! We are just $800 from our goal and my hope is bluesky can take us the rest of the way. 💛💛💛

obsessed with this painting by Hélène Delmaire, which inspired this ekphrastic poem from We Contain Landscapes. it’s a sonnet that breaks off, with fewer syllables at the last line, bc the speaker is crying. how to surrender to grief while refusing to be subsumed by it? WCL is forthcoming in March 🌀

okay here it is: a big thread of small businesses & artists who sell beautiful things. if I can vouch personally for quality (from previous orders) I will include that. I'll try to include shop location, too. if you want to buy presents that are original AND non-corporate, here you go!

In non fraud news- Alaa basically forced me to video call her even though she has plenty of other documentation (including an insta that predated the war and tons of unique photos) so I could see her adorable twins who waved at me while the quadcopter flew overhead
I am sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Alaa. Alaa is a very talented (see video) engineer who worked at the University of Gaza teaching design. She has twin 8 year old daughters, Ella and Ellen and their brother 10 year old Mosa. Mosa is injured from the bombing of their home.

Kim Chong-sam belonged to a generation of poets who came of age during the Korean War. Unlike some of his contemporaries who were drawn to cutting-edge poetic forms and maximalism, Kim Chong-sam was drawn to silence, and his poems were characterized by absences and excisions.
