Hey friends, my chapbook, which I’ve been drafting, revising, refining and sending out for about four years, has just been published. My first collection of #poems, I’m chuffed, as the British say, for you to read it! https://t.co/ihD2fy402l

God, my gmail’s predictive text editor just autocorrected “Lyn Hygenian” with “Lyn Hegel” with the confidence of a teenager who’s certain he knows more than you about poetry and Continental Philosophy.

What I love most about tech from the past fifteen years or so: You can totally drive around talking to yourself, making impassioned arguments, searching up evidence, and those in passing cars just assume you’re on bluetooth. #oldpersonrealization

Drive, 1982 There is no new thing under the sun but the ever-reviving lives our losses foster, like the white-bloused girl wading cotton north of Dunn who looked up the moment that I lost her. Christian Wiman Image courtesy @MarcusMy3rs

Christian Wiman’s short poems do that thirsty thing that short poems are meant to do. My friends: Check. It. Out. #christianwiman #poems #shortpoems

Very thoughtful thread on @BearReview's 10th anniv issue by @jessemdelong. Honored that he thought through @NikkiUmmel's interview of me!
For the sixth day of the Literary Journals project, I wanted to read the most recent issue, 10.2, of @BearReview for reasons that are in the third part of this thread. Bear Review is an online poetry journal, open year-round for submissions. https://t.co/Vng9JeXthX 1/4
