In this garbage capitalist society, magazines like @thehooghlyreview.bsky.social , which operates without profit and produces beautiful work to ensure we are able to read it should be protected and celebrated.

It is my favorite magazine. Thank you for always working to give us the best.

Alongside some wonderful poets.

My poem “Reunions” is about those friendships that never age despite distance and time
