So happy to see this book in print! I fell in love with this collection when judging the 2025 Grayson Books Chapbook Contest. Great for the Sealey Challenge. tinyurl.com/ph22txws

Family, history, and identity are what @aaroncaycedokimura.bsky.social’s poetry is all about. And he’s obsessed with trying to come to terms (in verse!) with who he is and what it is that he’s inherited. #PoetryIsLife

It’s a great day to work in the breezeway. Normally I would be concerned that it’s warmer than it should be this time of year, but today I am grateful. I was craving sun and warmth desperately.

This little cairn standing by my garage door puts a smile on my face. @aaroncaycedokimura.bsky.social stacked it to look like a Japanese lantern. My tendency to anthropomorphize thinks it needs a name, a Japanese name. It has so much personality. How are you finding joy these days?

Such a fine tiny poem, full of mystery. There are so many moving poems in Tony Leuzzi's book Fog Notes, and some of the best short form poems ever. Here is one of my favorites that I memorized and often say to myself like a dark little prayer. #poetry
When a hand meets a door/ one expects that it will open--/the hand, not the door. /The door is closed forever.
