“I’d love to be the kind of writer who sits down at my desk at a specific and predictable time...and write, but I’ve never been that writer.” In today's Ten Questions, torrin a. greathouse discusses their new book, DEED, out now from weslpress. at.pw.org/10Q4greathouse

from DEED by torrin a. greathouse

Happy pub day, torrin a. greathouse ✨✨✨!!! I can't wait to read DEED! Congrats!

Happy book bday to beloved torrin a. greathouse, whose new collection DEED is absolutely stunning & filled with queer ety(myth)ology, burning haibuns, even a markov sonnet (!!), & so many poetic forms only a triple virgo could pull off ❤️

Happy pub day to the amazing and talented torrin a. greathouse

A reminder that Mary Oliver also wrote this:

That part. Without an embargo, you talking out the side of your mouth about “saving Palestinian lives.”

Books bought, gifted, and a galley to blurb 💜

A ceasefire is just the Bare Minimum!

This doesn’t mean anything 😭

New poem in Mizna online plus another in print. In summery: from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free. Nature deems it so!

I don’t want the most lethal fighting force in the world, I want affordable housing for folks NOT in the middle class, I want healthcare that views me as a patient & not a trick, I want to stop funding foreign wars, I want an end to sanctions that bleed the world of possibility.
