Perhaps the most radical and daring organization in Seattle. The Seattle Zoo: They don't allow dogs at ZooTunes concerts. Thank you Seattle Zoo.

17 Pilgrimages. The concierge wouldn’t let me up, but I was able to channel history outside on Broadway. If you listen closely at the 0:31 mark, you hear a car from the street below honking, making its way into the mix w/ Goodman & Eldridge as they trade solos. www.joshfeitpoetry.com/blog/im-all-...

I imagine Goodman, Chaney, and Schwerner also wouldn’t have been surprised to learn that she lost the race to a man whose presidency at base is all about undoing the civil rights movement and erasing any record of its history. www.joshfeitpoetry.com/blog/im-all-...

I wrote "Mental Health Poem" a few years ago. I'm happy to report it was published today by the gorge-i-oso Nova Literary Arts Magazine novacharlotte.com/volume-57/ The opening line: "Airports remind me of the fertile crescent." Click link to read. Pg. 12. #poetry

Not sure if it's a metric, but Wilson is the first Seattle mayor in memory who seems to enjoy (or even have a blast!) being mayor. www.instagram.com/p/DWAPgiNgXF...

Here's ECB on our socialist mayor's speech yesterday in the heart of traditional enemy territory publicola.com/2026/03/12/m...; Wilson spoke to Seattle's capitalist class at the Downtown Seattle Association shindig. The real indictment of the economy was happening on the 1st floor, tho. Empty.

And so, I’ve come to think of short blocks as enjambed lines of poetry where one block leads you to the next and the rush of surprises you’ll find there. www.joshfeitpoetry.com/blog/im-all-...

I used to be fond of telling my news team "There are no metaphors, only results." But I was wrong: There are metaphors, there are. (And results too it would seem.) @ericacbarnett.bsky.social, @Jonah Spangenthal-Lee

... And the @nytimes.com shows its willingness to continue to make a fool of itself. The FBI search doesn't "show" Trump's "willingness to..." blah blah blah. Trump is pursuing his 2020 grievances. And he's been pursuing them outright since November 2020.

You'd think they'd won a Pulitzer. You guys. Interviewing the president is what you do. It's your job. This fawning over yourselves (and the president) is not classy. Save the navel gazing for your therapist.

First tournament of the year winding down. You'll notice: No Anisimova, no Rybakina, no Andreeva in the late round. But one player always seems to be there. : )

Yesterday, I said Alex Dimitrov's Ecstasy was my favorite poetry book of 2025. That may have been a case of recency bias. Earlier in the year, there was Andrea Cohen's exceptional the Sorrow Apartments. You can read my review here www.joshfeitpoetry.com/blog/im-all-...

The leading right hand melody capitalizes on the sudden pop construction of the left hand accompaniment: A modified blues scale that stops short of reaching the traditional flatted (bluesy) VII note. That right hand? It goes all in on ascension... www.joshfeitpoetry.com/blog/im-all-...

The irony is that I don't know a single one of my Wrapped Top 5 Songs because they all come from my "Inner Journey" sleep mix, which I put on every night before bed.

@tromano.bsky.social wrote an oral history of the Village Voice. @ericacbarnett.bsky.social & I will be interviewing her tonight at Elliott Bay. 7pm. Free. Here's the Village Voice from the week I was born. Stokely Carmichael's original "Black Power" exhortation and also the Beatles on the cover.

Seattle's bumping. In the last 48 hours I've been at packed coffeeshops, 2 different crowded restaurants, on packed light rail trains & buses, at 2 packed bars, and out on the jumping streets. I'm not saying this is about Katie Wilson. But she IS more of a match for what's happening in our city.
