What a strange feeling--I've just submitted my critical paper to @PLU's RWW MFA program. I meant to send last Sunday, but held onto it, reading through twice more, and each time making tiny changes. Today, though, I let it go, to be seen by other eyes. Go well, Critical Thesis--I'm proud of you.

Now that I've fled Leon's site for bluer skies, I'm sure I'll be called an #Ex-X, but personally, I'll always consider myself a #TwitterQuitter.

Ciri-Bee says be kind to yourself if you are feeling stressed by the craziness that is the world right now. If you need a nap, take it! We all need a little comfort. I’m here for you. #torbiecat #blueskycats #catsofbluesky

Beebles wants to say hi. She hopes you’re doing okay, and says if you need a cat, she’ll be here. Also, today might be a good day to read a poem or two. #blackcat #poetsofbluesky #blueskycats

This is an essay on my poem "Ballad," Keats's notion of Negative Capability, and Lorca's Duende, with a prompt and a link to the original poem. I'm happy to share it with you.

Christ was laid out in a glass coffin, like Snow White. I visited and re-visited him. He looked so much like my father on his deathbed.
