“Today’s poem beautifully captures the pain of distance, of longing, of wanting to be somewhere, or with someone, when you can’t be," shares host @maggiesmithpoet.bsky.social in today’s episode.

What better way to wind down the week than with an episode of THE SLOW DOWN, featuring Acre poet @mattminicucci.bsky.social whose work host @maggiesmithpoet.bsky.social says "captures the pain of longing...to be somewhere, or with someone, when you can’t be"? 🎉🖊️

Oh no, not the AI industry, an eleventybillion-dollar sector that employs fives of people

AI stole basically everything I ever published along with pretty much every other writer so, no, I don’t think it’s cool or interesting or useful & now I don’t trust you because you think it’s “neat.”

It’s just theft.

Flashback Friday! @mattminicucci.bsky.social "has created, in extraordinary #poems of counterpoint, elegy, and autobiography, a dualism (a mirroring, a conjunction, a metronomic pairing) not binary so much as inclusively generative and devastating." (Kathy Fagan) press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/bo...
