33: I think of this @jordanhamel.bsky.social short-short as a pretty quintessential HAD piece. idk if it's a poem or prose, but it doesn't really matter... perfect language, hilarious but also sweet and touching. I've recommended it a ton.

Been a minute since I’ve been on here but it looks like the place to be. Anyway, by way of reintroduction, here’s a poem. @poetrydaily.bsky.social were kind enough to republish this as their poem of the day on November 5th. Luckily there wasn’t anything else going on that day. Enjoy

Truly a dream come true to appear in Poetry Magazine, especially in the gorgeous 'Lineage & Influence' issue alongside so many of my heroes. Thanks to Diane Seuss for making me hate sonnets less and inspiring this poem. I hope I did you justice. www.poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazi...
