Today's delicious slice of poem is another from our invited poet @julwe1.bsky.social. Julia's stacked imagery is just brilliant in this poem, and left us breathless. Read it in full in print or online here: www.hogriverpress.com/home

The spaces between words, the dropped stitches, that's where the action happens. @bethosmond.bsky.social sent us the most perfect example. Read her poem and weep. It's available in print or online here: www.hogriverpress.com/home. Beth, thank you so much for sharing your incredible work.

Today's bit of poem comes from our ludicrously good featured poet, @jesstraynor.bsky.social. It was hard to choose which lines to pull: it's all so bloody good. Did we pick the best ones? You can read the full poem in print or online here, and decide for yourself: www.hogriverpress.com/home

A perfect thread from master of threads, @dieworkwear.bsky.social. I was only surprised he didn't point out how much better President Z. looked in his non-suit than Brian Glenn ever could in his nasty royal blue number. Some might say it was enough to attract MTG, and I would say 'exactly'.

Since I’m new here, I thought I’d share some recent writing I’ve published in order to have people comment on this thread with their own recently published work. So, for poetry, latest thing published that I’m super proud of was “To the Marrow” in the phenomenal Hog River Press tinyurl.com/4bh8swmb

The Hog is coming to Bluesky. We'll be transitioning slowly over from Twitter over the next few months, so posting here and there for now. But please mainly read us here, 'cos we no longer like it there.
