A few books from the mail the past few days. All while the world is volcanic w/ political violence, oppression, & repression. Might be a bit of loftiness to say that poetry's the antidote. But, it might be. And maybe it will make you feel good to buy my book ESTATE SALE? 🔗in bio

Here’s what you need to know about what’s going on in Los Angeles.
The state and city have the means to control the protests. Donald Trump is getting involved to intentionally make the situation more violent. And potentially to create a pretext for some sort of martial law.
ICE Head @RealTomHoman is a racist criminal and a domestic terrorist. When there's a reconciliation in this country, he should be one of the first to stand and beg for forgiveness. And then he should stand trial.

I'll have more to say about this soon, but Jonathan Fink's #poetry collection drops *tomorrow* & I was lucky enough to read it. The lyric narratives astound. Buy it here: dzancbooks.org/all-titles/p...

’Sé do bheatha, a bhean ba léanmhar
do bé ár gcreach tú bheith i ngéibhinn
do dhúiche bhreá i seilbh meirleach
from the Irish
Hail, oh woman, who was so afflicted,
It was our ruin that you were in chains,
Our fine land in the possession of thieves..

POETS, ESSAYISTS, READERS:
