Trying to push Hessen.
It's split into 5 "books" (poetry style) and has action and monsters and mental gymnastics to climb!
I even made the book cover, which explains why it's so "good" 🙃. I'll share snippets soon.

I beg the floods
to stop
from coming.
I try to
pray it all
away.
But it’s in me,
it’s blowing
through me—
I am its god,
and I am
the village
annihilated.

I'll be posting and reposting about Hessen Books I-V on-and-off, as I really think people would like it if they read it!
It's short, similar to Rime of the Ancient Mariner, but it's contemporary and something I put a lot of care into!

If you like action/adventure games, Gilgamesh and Rime of the Ancient Mariner, as well as science fiction and horror, I implore you to check out Hessen.
It's a long poem, but it's dense and immensely interpretive. #poet #poem #writer #bluesky

NGC2335, the Seagull nebula, another ongoing project I’ve been working on for about three weeks. In this case as well, this image was obtained by capturing the radiation emitted in the ionized hydrogen spectrum and partly in oxygen, with about 15 hours of integration time. >>>

I felt the same. After years of feeling forced to push for relationships and friendships, the diagnosis was a relief to just... Stop.
Like I'm happy without anyways, and unless I get along with someone, there's no point trying to push things.

Sitting at the edge
Of the volcanic crater,
At the peak of the gods
At the snowy ledge
I wait. I wait for others,
I wait to play hide n' seek,
To seek in the middle
Of the Olympian cradle
At the true Olympus
Of our skies, the moment men
Become gods of another planet.

In the difficult years ahead, we should remember that the snows of Olympus lie silent beneath the stars, waiting for our grandchildren.

I'm thinking of all the poets silenced by tyranny throughout history, and how their poems last longer than any king.

I didn't know her poetry before, but as a writer and poet as well, this fucking hurts.
Writing and poetry instills curiosity and love and wonder in people, and to hear a mom/poet shot and killed by the federal government is disgusting.
"Make room for wonder" is something she wrote.

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University.

Instead of saying "In a hole in the ground there lived a Hobbit,"
I now say "In a hole in the ground there lived a vegan dessert."
Now Bilbo is a true shape shifter.

Lots as I sit here waiting

Considering putting together a Bingo Card of lit mags to see if I can get Bingo via acceptances. I want to submit more poetry and short fiction this year (after focusing on longer forms in 2025), and this seems like fun.

I get that most people have to be miserable and work day jobs, but can I just... Not?
Like is there a way to jump off this train? Or maybe it's not a train. It feels more like a Kamikaze plane.
If I jump out of the Kamikaze plane, will I survive?
