NEW POEM #221: "Autumn’s First Frost" by John Paul Davis (@johnpauldavis.bsky.social)

"I could see it get thinner.
Autumn has been like that, lovely
days over & over, too many
& I’m certain the seasons will snap
in two."

Feels so good to feel so hungry again for poetry post-AWP, another collection I couldn’t put down! Alison Benis White has long been a favorite. Some magic I jotted down (would’ve written less hastily if I knew I’d post, love a loopy cursive 😬):

“I don’t know how to love the world but to confess.”

Finished reading Scorched Earth by Tiana Clark in bed before work this morning. The line that made me leap up and run to my desk and notebook:

“Who do you think you are / without shame?”

Always sad to come to the end of a Traci Brimhall book, because one can never have enough poems by @tracibrimhall.bsky.social 🥲

Having a birthday close to Christmas means I get to cross off a lot of my book wish list. Finally digging into my December haul!

“I can’t undo all I have done to myself,
what I have let an appetite for love do to me.” 😭
