Incredible Arpita Singh show at London’s Serpentine. I’ve been thinking about this more than the Elektra production we saw, the reason I came here in the first place

Tonight’s ceremony in The Hague awarding Simone Atangana Bekono the 2024 Jan Campert Prize. Remember her name. Today’s Dutch poetry isn’t like anything you’ve seen before. Here’s a small bit of what I have to say about that: www.the-low-countries.com/article/egan...

London calling. Off in March to see Carson’s translation of Elektra on stage.

Contrib copies of Bat City Review made it across the ocean so I can see this weird little prose poem of mine in print AND ON BUTTONS. I’m in love.

So grateful to Brown for teaching us, not to be careerists in poetry, but to live a life — and write from there. Thinking of him from across an Oslo sunset.

You can pray to a sky like that, but it
won’t do much good—there’s a sky
above the sky above the sky, dazzling
in splendor of light and darkness
—Bill Brown

Rest in poetry, Brown.
