Oh hello is this now my favorite love poem 👀
The way I’m already obsessed with this two pages in my goodness 🔥

Picked up “Embodied Exegesis” edited by @robotleblanc.bsky.social a while ago from @neonhemlock.bsky.social and am just now getting into it. Holy shit I love this, is my main reaction right now.
If you enjoy the excerpts I have posted, please consider buying my book, which is filled to bursting with thrilling bons mots, daring executions of the various schemes and tropes of classical rhetoric, clever glosses of ancient texts, and some stuff about love or magic powers or whatever.

"I am learning how to be weakness leaving the body.
I am licking citric atlas critic acid off my fingers.
Every day is keep doing my tasks keep reminding and head down.
Nobody minds the back kept slant until straight again."

Got a submission from someone who had Matthew Olzmann read this poem at their wedding. Probably one of my fave things we've published!
"...We each need
a partner posted on the roof, someone
with a crossbow watching high cornfields
for signs of movement."

Let’s be honest: what each of us wants
is to never get eaten by zombies,
and the shotgun-shaped truth of the matter
is we’re less likely to be ravaged
by the ravenous appetites of the dead...
