Scored one of the best deals at a library sale a couple weeks ago. This is one of the BEST references for any poet or writer. The features in this thing are amazing. $4 my dudes. Mint condition. I flipped out.
Ah, thanks so much for taking some time with my work and sharing this around! Iβm looking forward to hearing some of your poetry now. Cheers! π§‘
Of course! I bet Iβve listened to her read it 50 times. No joke. βStrings of beads in their green bowl gleamed.β Mmm. π
Hi! Yes, lovely to be connected here. And PΓ‘draig was such a delight in-person, yes. Warm, funny, generous, urgent, and inviting. What a gem of a human and champion for poetry.
One of my favorites by one of my favorites. I was thinking of Stafford and this poem when I wrote βDriving Into the Morningβ.
Hereβs βLapsang Souchongβ a short love poem from my debut collection, The Long Invisible.

So thankful to read new poems from my debut collection at my alma mater, @berrycollege.bsky.social last week! Itβs always a good day to be back on campus.

David, I really love this poem. As a sometimes noticer β if not always admirerβof little buzzy things, this is a really wonderful piece. Thank you! Glad to start to get to know your work.
My goodness. They are, indeed, choc chip delights. The best Iβve had! Hereβs a post about them and the utterly delightful bookstore/coffee shop that offers them:

@charlottedonlon.bsky.social hosted me and 15 of her friends for a delicious meal (with the famous Breakup Cookies!) and a reading from my new book. The conversations and connections with her Birmingham folks are such gifts! Thank you for being a champion of the arts and community, Charlotte! π§‘
Love this poem and the bit in your interview about your practice of writing a response poem. Thanks!
