i have a poem in THE split lip magazine this month <3
"I hate you like vampires hate garlic, like oils
hate water, like dinosaurs hate meteorites—
what I’d give for one to crater you. I hate you"
The impeccable opening to Despy Boutris' HATE POEM WITHOUT A DROP OF HYPERBOLE IN IT, in our ✨ MAY ISSUE ✨: buff.ly/O10jIwE

ALT A dizzying painting: crooked, tessellating cubes in red, orange, yellow, olive, sky blue, and lavender — a bold red imprimatura energizing every surface. The cubes’ white faces recede and flatten at once, the canvas pulsing with geometric tension.

honestly i'm this close to quitting reading for good. every single author i actually love turns out to be problematic or worse. i'm so tired of finding out after i already got attached. feels like i can't enjoy anything anymore without a background check first

tysm to everyone who replied! apparently there were many more novels-in-verse than i realized (& BY actual poets thank god —i stand by the fact that ones by excl. prose/fic writers prob are bad across the board bc they just don’t have the craft down). excited 2 check these out 💗

For those who missed it: this was the moment The Strokes ensured they’ll never set foot in Coachella again! I'm so proud of them #Strokeschella
