reminder

poetry is not a career it is a choice of life a way of living to paraphrase the poet eileen tabios poetry as a way of life poetry is ordinary & astonishing simple & beyond comprehension poetry is like yr first kiss as you held yr child for the very first time that moment of sex when you disappear into the cosmos as you delight in the delight of yr partner poetry is like the pleasure of shitting that movement & release as you sit for a moment silent on yr toilet thinking of getting to work on time what you might have for dinner & how the size of the universe is almost beyond comprehension poetry is extraordinary & ordinary like our lives as we be in the world wondering how the hell did we get here
