"Sometimes the Bible in the hand of one man is worse than a whisky bottle in the hand of another..There are just some kind of men who're so busy worrying about the next world they've never learned to live in this one, and you can look down the street and see the results." #Booksky

Getting pretty damn chokey trying to write this here maid of honor speech for my sister’s wedding. I’m going to need a tranquilizer on Saturday.

This was easily the best work of non-fiction I read in 2026. I have highlighted the hell out of this thing, and it’s made me think about how I want to shape my next book.

Because I am a poet, I remember that the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs is responsible for forming this body of water that I float in — that we are temporary things, single shimmering waves swallowed by momentum and time.

Here’s to all the friends I knew who left high school to fight, die, or came home maimed in an endless war for oil and empire because of what happened today, 25 years ago.

40 trillion in national debt and no high speed rail, no universal healthcare, no school lunches, no green infrastructure, no affordable housing, no free or stabilized tuition or student loan forgiveness, no equitable school facilities, no veteran benefits, nothing nothing nothing for YOU.

“You there, the wild bird of you the wild thing of you, hot, lewd, miraculous.” Bukowski’s letters to Linda King are a joy to read.

A heart that's full up like a landfill A job that slowly kills you Bruises that won't heal You look so tired, unhappy Bring down the government They don't, they don't speak for us I'll take a quiet life A handshake of carbon monoxide And no alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises
