Congratulations to Adam Tavel on his new book “The Ghost-Star King”! His work was originally published in our 26th edition of the Freshwater review, earning its place as a finalist for the Rose Warner Prize for Poetry!

Why Bother?
Because right now, there is
someone
out there with
a wound
in the exact shape
of your words.

Unexpected & supercool box of merch from TRP! 7 copies of The Cave left from the first readings, and I don't plan on reading in the next couple months. Anybody want one? Send $25 to www.venmo.com/u/Ryan-Vine-1, and I'll send you a signed copy and a bunch of cool merch! Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

Right! And the final scene follows too. Tarantino before Tarantino.

Good Company

Walking through the snowy field
the day after
I walked through the snowy field,

I step next to my first set of prints
so anyone who cares to can see
I was never alone.

Ryan Vine's new book, "The Cave," is marvelous...

...including this little gem that parses the line between solitude & merely being alone ❤️ @ryanvine.bsky.social

Tawny owl

Tawny owl

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.

After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵
