ISO recommendations for poetry collections (e.g. Twice Alive by Forrest Gander) & poems (e.g. "The Forest" by Susan Stewart) that pay particular attention to the forest floor/mushrooms/lichen/etc.

The new issue of @poetrynw is out with my prose poem Angel Number Seven, an #OCD and #depression origin story of sorts.

"Once I opened my mouth to finally scream, I couldn’t close it. I’d had enough. I pulled all the stars out of the sky. A door inside me opened and accessed all the parts of me that had stayed quiet and numb. My mouth, a black hole of anger and pain." rejection-letters.com/2023/05/31/saf…

Love this final reflection from a student in Women Poets & the Cosmos: "I've realized that's what this whole course has been about--the vast, unexplored inner parts of our identities and how they relate to the similarly vast, unexplored universe around us."

We ended Women Poets & the Cosmos w/ an exercise in absurdity inspired by EEAAO. "Rebellion...is a fabricator of universes...To create beauty, [we] must simultaneously reject reality & exalt certain of its aspects. Art disputes reality, but does not hide from it." - Albert Camus
