ICE officers intimidating our school board chair this morning. Given what happened last summer with the Hortmans and Hoffmans this is as low and fucking evil as anything I can imagine, abolish and persecute the whole fucking agency

30 minlutes ago Sarah Mervosh reporting from St Paul, Minn
It has been one week today since Liam was taken with his dad, Adrian, on his way home from school,” said Mary Granlund, the school board chair in Columbia Heights, where Liam Conejo Ramos has been one of four students who school district officials say have been detained by immigration officials. Of the other three, she said, two were detained on the way to school, and another was getting ready for school when there was a knock on the door.

“Only one of those students is home, and it is not Liam,” Granlund said at a news conference at the Minnesota State Capitol.

“This is not over,” said Granlund, who said only this morning that she called the police because of unmarked cars outside of her home, which she said police confirmed were immigration officials.

I wrote a poetry chapbook & my plan was to self-publish a little run but the idea of any kind of self-promo/commerce fills me with despair. So I just made a pdf copy if you would a copy message me here or get a hold of me somehow

I Don't Want to Die During National Poetry Month from a new forthcoming Dube Cantos chapbook, which I don't think is an April Fools' Joke

I Don't Want to Die During National Poetry Month
Who are these poets who know what their poems are about?
The same who aren't ashamed of winning an award? I'd die of horror first
Who are these healthy people who write poetry? People who eat fruit I bet
I get calls sometimes, still, trying to convince me or persuade me and they all have the same unquestioning tone as these poets
Leave poetry to the carnal idiots crashing through life, if you need to honor them name a ditch after them at least a ditch serves a puropse
