We feel very lucky that so many people submitting to our open reading period have elected to pay a reading fee— their generosity has already ensured that we’ll be able to select at least two chapbooks.

I will continually think about how white artists like to steal and imitate Black culture and life to make a quick buck while constantly excluding Black people from their Black equation.

Poems--something! Poems?

Poems, something, poems

Poems something, poems

Poems, something poems

Poems something poems

Cover Reveal!! Thank you to @omnidawn.bsky.social for allowing me to honor my grandparents on the cover of this book! It means so much to me!

Let's start ACCOMPLISHMENT SUNDAY with a book 🌞 Contributor @jasonbcrawford.bsky.social 's new collection of Afrofuturist poetry, YEET, is forthcoming in October from @omnidawn.bsky.social . You can even pre-order now! buff.ly/Rn6MsMB

I downloaded IG for 5 mins to check messages and I had to delete it instantly. My anxiety shot through the roof.

Sorry for the lack of prompts, for day 7: write a poem like a math equation Day 8: write a poem in reverse (start from the last line)

I am not going to lie, I am tired

Today’s prompt for the 10/10 Write a mundane poem. Keep the stakes very low, talk about the day to day.

Day 5: Small container poem, Write a poem in less than 40 words.

Prompt for day 4: Write a poem that includes a drag queen.

Yes I did write a poem yesterday. Yes I did come up with a prompt for today! Write a nonsensical poem on something you care deeply about. Replace language and metaphors for something you would normally use to explain something with language that doesn’t add up or make sense.

I’m so excited! I have prompts for the next two days

Moving back to some of my favorite Button Poetry videos. I think I need this.

I wrote a poem yesterday part of the 10/10 I’m doing! So I offer you all this prompt! Start a poem by admitting something about your fear.

If you are considering starting this 10/10 and want to be added to the accountability group, please read this docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Sorry for the delay. Let’s start Wednesday. Jump in this drive and create a folder if you want an accountability partner. drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Anyone wanna do a 10/10 poem a day starting on Monday?

jason… you’re catastrophizing

Y’all should be proud of me, all I have wanted to do while in Ann Arbor is get a random tattoo and I have resisted that urge!!

Damn 😤🙁

I am reembarking on something that might have been the hardest thing I’ve ever written. I am three poems in

I am 300 words away from 40k in my essay collection. Teeheehee🤭🤭

Called @taylorbyas.bsky.social just to say I didn’t need to write a poem. Museum [redacted] went lovely.

Again I say, we will not be writing a poem about this museum [redacted].

unfortunately I once again discovered that exercise makes me feel better

transgender will never go away

It’s crazy that I have to say this but I will not be writing an essay while drunk at the club tonight
