i haven’t been writing many new poems lately because almost any emotion flares up whatever ulcerous cigarette burn-hole has taken up residence (and is trying to reduce it to ash) in the passenger seat of me and there’s no a/c as the whole sun careens through my digestive race track.

Y'all, what are we going to do about Florida and its "education" of American history to young Americans? Are we going to allow little Black children sit in Florida classes and read about how slavery was a fucking benefit to some Black people? I'm at a loss of what to do about Florida. Ideas?

NEW POEM #137: "acute" by Mathew Yates (@mathewyates.bsky.social)
"there is a cavern in a chasm underneath
the earth, where if you think alone long
enough, you can transform into dirt, or,
curled up green like a seed, you can
reach for the sun like a newborn weed"
