As the world decays, there are still poems and mushrooms 🍄 and there will always be love. ❤️ Here's my 37-second poem "Sweet Nothings According to Fungi." Thanks to Leia @fullhouselitmag.bsky.social for featuring this poem and for being such a supportive editor to work with.

Really leaning into MLK Day today and remembering my teacher, mentor, and friend Dr. Vincent Harding who taught us that we “are part of an ageless, pulsating membrane of light.” May peace, reason, and love prevail. ❤️
