Huge thank yous to those who've purchased physical & digital copies of ANGELS & INSECTS this year. It's turned 2 this month & has admittedly been limping along in terms of sales, so the resurgence of interest this year has really put wind back in my sails. Also, Kith is wonderful.

One thing I want all the "I finish hours of work in seconds" AI bros to know is, you are raising the threshold for yourself & your coworkers. This level of output will become expected, but your pay will stay the same or decrease. It's already happening.

HE/HIM

when i say i'm a man i mean my shoulders are broad yet
i cannot
carry the weight.
when i say i'm a man i mean
but like, not really
when i say i'm a man i mean if I had to choose

shatter my nebula
let the stars grind against one another
hope they form new constellations
the milky way we never meant to be all that there is
so i'm begging for an exploration of the sky

KILL THE FLY/SAVE THE CHILD

fly in theater is the space over the stage: the sensation of being debrided, of settling on the eyes or the skin to seek fluid from wounds. without the fly, who will tell the dead tissue it's dead? who will fish? who will bait? to be a model organism requires some capability of spreading disease; some willingness to harm the cattle or the economy or both. i'm done growing. I've shed my wings & become secondary. i can detect taste & smell & respond to touch. this is theater: how i flock to light in darkness even when it shocks me. how i occupy space on the stage. how i taught myself to levitate. in many flies, the larva stage is long & adults live short lives. i am increasingly inclined to rest my gelatin head, we've only just begun.

sour cherry

i split infinitives because you
told me it's okay
that's latin's problem
not ours
thirty-five days i've ripened
until soft flesh gives way to mealy stone fruit
(hold me gently please or i'll collapse)

blinking is
like pushing the lever
on a viewmaster
black and white
freeze frames from reels i'd love to burn
ligatured by scarlet fantasies sangria dreams
supercede whiskey nightmares for some reason)
(lest i forget them
mouldered hips alive again
kissing on the settee
it's okay
