RIP Asad Haider. Like so many things about him it is unbelievable. It was unbelievable he taught Lazarus in his graduate classes, it was unbelievable that we became friends, he was unbelievably generous with his time, and he held an unbelievably unshakeable faith in emancipation.

My poem, 'The Death of John Ashberry' is out in the latest issue of The Exacting Clam (@exactingclam.bsky.social). Have a squiz if you like nonsense. Hell, it's barely a poem.

Wrote a little essay about inspiration and our dominant metaphors of it. One I prefer over others, is that inspiration is a pit.
