Honored to have received my first rejection from The Paris Review today. I'm holding out for the even more prestigious @tacobellquarterly.org anyway. I have a different poem on sub there.
I survived - so far at least - an aortic dissection in October 2022. I live in a perpetual state of gratitude for that. 🙏🕉️☮️💓 #aorticdissection #gratitudeattitude

Footage from the witness in pink who managed to save the footage from ICE coverup. Clearly shows the murder of the man in Minneapolis, Minnesota by Trump regime ICE forces. #3E #GoodVsEvil
With no disrespect to Jimmy Stewart, Frank Capra, and the rest of the creative team, I'm finding this remake of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington even more engaging than the original! #jacksmith #americanhero #impeachandremove #lockhimup #jan6insurrection #stolenclassifieddocuments #releasethefiles
