There is something maddeningly attractive about the untranslatable, about a word that goes silent in transit. -- Anne Carson

God's Bouquet Of Undying Love

April snow.
God is waiting in the garden.
Slow as a blush,

snow shifts and settles on God.
On God's bouquet.
The trees are white nerve nets.

Be kind. Make things with your hands. Something. Anything. Make a fucking sandwich. Read a book. Listen to a record from start to finish. Literally anything at all that puts us closer to tipping the scale back toward humanity. It sounds trite, but what else is there?

Stop ordering things through apps! Go talk to the person who makes your coffee! Make a phone call! Make a list with a pen and honest to god paper! Stop using a computer to mimic what human hands can do! It can’t go on like this. It just can’t.

Why do I do this? Why do I listen to a podcast that explains that many AI workers are explicitly anti-life? That they want not only a post-human world, but a post-biology one? That is to say, a world without breath, without paws and claws, without any non-simulated virtual green?

Many congratulations to Anne Carson for the well-deserved Nobel Prize! This is also great news for Translation, Classics, Poetry, the breaking of generic and disciplinary boundaries, and the fact that you don't have to fit a pre-existing mould to have a brilliant, successful career.

poet(s) on a thursday

sonny sprawls on the coffee table with his paws over the edge, head resting on my green 5-year-diary poem notebook. he’s side-eyeing the camera. next to the poem diary is my regular diary, and next to that are my feet and legs, crossed at the ankles. i’m wearing very thick-soled “jogging” black converse.

Very sorry to hear of the death of John Crowley. I had the great unearned fortune to be the editor of his last novel, Flint and Mirror (2022), expanded from a story written for Gardner Dozois's 2018 anthology The Book of Magic. 1/5

Front jacket of John Crowley's novel Flint and Mirror (Tor, 2022).

I hadn't kept up with his later novels, but Crowley was one of the key influences on my life. Ah, this is a painful one.

Getting real sick of slop midwives pleading for a 'respectful discussion' of AI as relates to the arts. Your use of AI to 'make art' is not respectful. It benefits from stolen art, destroys the planet, and does not make you an artist any more than someone driving 26.2 miles is a marathoner.

One of the (many) reasons I think people are so anti-AI is that it’s a gratuitous display of wealth inequality. The average person’s life is difficult, expensive, and getting any kind of loan sucks - unless you’re raising billions of dollars to build an AI data center.
