Executive function is a bitch to control. I'm hoping that the semester ending and having grades turned in will free me up to focus on things I'd like to focus on. /cough cough @audilocus.bsky.social

Excited to keep going. Issue 2.1 will be out by the end of this month. I'll finish responding to those subs in the upcoming days. Looking forward to the next batch, too! No joke--producing a literary journal alone is a lot of work! 😅

small poem for #smallpoemsunday. originally published in @cv2magazine.bsky.social (winter 2019).

Bloom

she fixed me with her stare
and the motion of her finger
was an apple blossom
seen in reverse:

the slow curl
the open question

Louisiana is putting up candidates against him for the midterms! I'm impressed with Matt Gromlich (@mattgromlichla4.bsky.social), a Shreveport professor with a RateMyProfessor score of 4.9/5 with over 300 ratings. 💙

Maudie Bryant @maudiemichelle.com · 29/03/2026

Not unopposed at all—Louisiana has said enough! There's also a Shreveport professor running named Matt Gromlich (@mattgromlichla4.bsky.social)! He's another grassroots candidate and I love that his RateMyProfessor score is 4.9/5 with over 300 ratings.

The guy that has the tools for the job is @mattgromlichla4.bsky.social. He's a Shreveport professor who is ultra accessible—he answers his messages! I also love he has a 4.9/5 on RateMyProfessor with over 300 ratings.

Anyway. Men sometimes wonder why women don’t respond to them in parking lots, gas stations, or grocery stores. This is why. Because sometimes it’s just a guy asking for a lighter. And sometimes it’s a guy filming himself with his cock out at 11AM in the Dollar Tree parking lot. (5/5)

010

Maudie Bryant @maudiemichelle.com · 16/03/2026

That’s when I realized what was going on. This man had himself fully out, just casually stroking it. He said, completely calm, “Oh don’t mind me, I’m just getting my videos.” I mumbled something like “uh… alright dude,” quickly got in my car, and drove away. (4/5)

Maudie Bryant @maudiemichelle.com · 16/03/2026

Not wanting to point where I live, I told him I work way over at BPCC. “So you’re a teacher?” he asked. Something about the vibe felt off, a real "Arnold Friend" sort of energy. I was ready to disengage, but I wanted to make sure the lighter worked: “Did you get it lit?” (3/5)

Maudie Bryant @maudiemichelle.com · 16/03/2026

As I was leaving, an SUV was backed into the space next to mine with a guy in the driver's seat, window down. He asked if I had a lighter. I found one in my car and handed it over. He used it for a second and gave it back. Then he smiled and asked where I was from. (2/5)

CW: sexual harassment / indecent exposure If you’ve ever wondered why women sometimes ignore men who talk to us randomly in public, here’s a real-life example. Yesterday around 11AM I stopped by Dollar Tree in Blanchard, Louisiana. I parked directly in front of the store doors. (1/5)🧵

Some happy news: my poem “Anxiety is a House” has been selected as a finalist for the AR Ammons Poetry Prize! The winner will be announced March 25th (judged by Crystal Simone Smith). I’m really honored to be on this list. 🥰

A screenshot of the "AR Ammons Finalists" announcement list. The second entry, "Maudie Bryant" and her poem "Anxiety is a House," is highlighted in yellow. A large, surprised "face with open mouth" emoji is layered over the right side of the list, partially covering other titles to emphasize the shock and excitement of the news.

Absolutely! I'm rooting for Matt Gromlich @mattgromlichla4.bsky.social, the candidate to retire Mike Johnson from Louisiana’s 4th District. 💙

For full transparency, I actually worked on Cable’s campaign early on. He didn't take the advice to prioritize local engagement or a clear digital presence then, so I’m not holding my breath now. I like Matt because he's already doing that work without being prodded.

120

Maudie Bryant @maudiemichelle.com · 13/03/2026

Just a recent example: Cable has a habit of showing up late or leaving early, like he did at the State of Black Shreveport. Showed up just for his panel without listening to the community. He didn't even post on socials about being there. @mattgromlichla4.bsky.social attended the entire day.

Maudie Bryant @maudiemichelle.com · 13/03/2026

And a reminder to make an informed decision by checking out each candidate. Louisiana switched to closed primaries this year, so it matters who wins in May to go up again Mike in November. @mattgromlichla4.bsky.social is a professor in the district who -actually- shows up.

Maudie Bryant @maudiemichelle.com · 13/03/2026

Hoping for @mattgromlichla4.bsky.social! Louisiana switched to closed primaries this year, so we need to get him through the Democratic primary on May 16 first to get him on that November ballot against Mike!

Maudie Bryant @maudiemichelle.com · 13/03/2026

That map isn't accurate, the current map has the newest Dist 06 as a diagonal slice across the state and through the previous Dist 04. Also, please look into @mattgromlichla4.bsky.social, a professor in the district who actually shows up and has the skills to get the job done.
