"[The ducks] they have marked the areas in which they congregate with each other, bury their heads in a nest of their own wings and go to sleep without fearing the outside." I wrote about my disability, depression & ducks for @berfrois -

I'm very sorry to see @berfrois go. One of the few online magazines where superabundance has always held joyous sway. As an archive it will continue to inspire, and I'm very grateful to Russ and the other editors who made me feel like my poems might be worth reading.
It's closing time for Berfrois. We're declaring at 13 years. Thanks for reading!

Thank u @RussellBennetts for running such a great & wide reaching lit mag & bringing me on board for the last few years. It was an absolute pleasure reading through poetry from around the world and I’m very grateful to have been able to publish the work we did 💫 🙌

Berfrois is closing, thank you to each one of our followers, the writers, artists, philosophers, who carried this for us. My deepest gratitude to @RussellBennetts @catonacanto for their faith, patience, brilliance. Here's to the good life: literature, ideas, tea.

Justin E.H. Smith has given up alcohol. Hell yes, life is good, he says. I'm not convinced, but this is a worthwhile read. https://t.co/hlB6NO5rUW

Just discovered @berfrois is closing. What a pity. Learned and read so much here. Including writing a bit back in the day. Thank you @RussellBennetts for building an actual place without borders.

"That’s what it is, I think, to survive past midlife: your life is not done, yet it is, as we say, 'a done deal'." A philosopher gives up alcohol. https://t.co/sccSepIjg3

"Writing is how I try to stretch this margin out into a horizon. But for a long time, I have been unable to see anything beyond the concrete jaggedness of buildings resembling fossils of trees surrendered to petrification." My new essay at Berfrois—

In full denial that @berfrois is shutting down. My fav writing was for them—experimental, weird, place-specific essays, very me. Here’s three, starting with: Grappling with childhood loneliness in conversation with Chateaubriand https://t.co/DmoC16dMyW
