Today @PoemsAncientMod , @JosephBottum urges us to read what drama IS there in Coleridge's famously unfinished "Kubla Khan," rather than what's broken off and left unwritten on the entrance of that mysterious Person from Porlock. P L E A S U R E D O M E I N B I O
Some woman on NextDoor (actually down the road in Iron Station) sent out a photo of the copperhead she found in her living room today, so I guess I know what nightmare I'll be having tonight.
Today over on the s--- I’ve written a piece on Cavafy’s ‘The God Abandons Antony’, touching also on Shakespeare, Plutarch, Horace and Louis MacNeice. Link in bio.
“Let Them Grow” by #RobertCrawford: plough.com/en/topics/cult…
Writing today on Rupert Brooke, whom Yeats once called "the handsomest man in England." A kind of B-side poem I thought was interesting. L I N K &c.
I twisted Paul's arm & now ALL his books are 35% off--not just Boris' and mine, but those as well of @DanaGioiaPoet, #DavidMason, #DeborahWarren, @MelissaBalmain, @mfjarman & many other #poets. I can only bully Paul for so long, so race to @PaulDryBooks for these discounts!

Today @PoemsAncientMod , @JosephBottum writes on a brand-new, never-before-seen poem by A.M. Juster. L I N K I N B I O
To anticipate the Nov publication of my new book “The Mary Pages” @WordOnFire I’ll be posting an image of La Madonna every day this May. (Virgin of the Rocks, Leonardo)
Thanks to @JosephBottum & @SallyThomasNC for publishing my latest poem, "Epistle to a Friend Confused about the Ivy League": open.substack.com/pub/poemsancie…

Thanks @CarlaGaldoVA for letting me know this news was live. Apparently I placed 2nd in the CLA Sacred Arts competition this year! You can see the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place poems at the link below: catholicliteraryarts.org/2024-sacred-po…. Congratulations to Carla for earning an Honorable Mention.
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay! ... Memory's Abacus is officially here! Immense gratitude to @WisebloodBooks for bringing my first book of poems into the world.

@MmePapyraceus i've had this thought with the modesty passages in the new testament. the primary objective seems to be avoiding this sort of worldly social competition (ie why expensive clothing is mentioned). but if you just flip the script but have the same competition that's no good either.
Just thinking about how Christ’s descent to hell incorporates hell into God’s sabbath rest. I wonder if hell is, then, a place of perpetual work, and all Christ did to empty it was to do no work there.
Just when I thought I had streamed every last intelligent detective drama…. This one is so great. In Flemish! Many great character studies, PLUS they just quoted Rimbaud, Shakespeare, Claudel, & Dickens 😍📚

Nothing makes me want to shout SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP more than discourse about converts vs cradle Catholics, left vs right Catholics, or Trad vs normie Catholics. I have completely lost any appetite for that kind of thing
The vicar who married my non-believing parents painted an incredible copy of this by Raphael, and it hung in my grandparents’ house. She was my first Mary.
A sonnet on the woe that is in marriage by Jehanne Dubrow. From Simple Machines (UEvansville, 2020), winner of the Richard Wilbur Award.
i hate to say that simply eating more protein the past two weeks has given me gym results that i was unsuccessfully trying to get over the last year
The result are in... Polar smoked mussels are not only good, they are EXCELLENT. The flavor is very mild. They are not fishy. The mussels are small and tender - not chewy. A little hot sauce and they are perfect. I might try them with pasta and garlic next time.
Yeats’ poem sort of goes downhill, after that great opening line – but such is life, I guess (according to the poem).
I remember my first class with poet Michael S. Harper. He slouched in his chair at the head of the table, wearing his little black beret, and just looked at us. The room was uncomfortably silent, for 10 minutes. Then he started to recite that poem. “Speech after long silence…”

@suzania also, now you say, perhaps why those from culturally thick churches (evangelicals in particular; maybe culturally defined or shaped would make folks less hesitant..) struggle missing that aspect
