Our attention is so precious. Some q's I’ve been asking myself recently: in the turbulence of shock & awe, who do I devote myself to today? How can I more deeply attend, or tend to, the beings in my communities near & far? Grateful to gather around this reverence with others in Oga Po'geh this week.

Two new poems up at @sonorareview.bsky.social this week ❤️‍🔥 thank you to Nellie and the rest of the SR crew! sonorareview.com/2025/01/31/t...
I SPENT AN ENTIRE LIFETIME TRYING TO BE GOOD Licking your splinter-paw. Mewling into the gummy cavern of your inner ear. In the painted vase of my goodness, I splattered shame all over these walls. I rubbed my sorry cheeks, arched a Very Limber spine. I rode the tightrope, cowgirl. Brought my two palms together and acted like I knew mercy intimately. I watched myself fuck her on the dust-mattress of her mother’s top terrace, smelled her perfume the whole plane ride back, even with a misery -hungry boy-man waiting for me in his golf course home. Every morning for a year, he brought me a hot thermos of tea. I collected the tea labels, doodled in I love you’s like tokens— like proof.
