I had fun reading with Rae Armantrout and the Russian translator and poet Ian Probstein, at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library in downtown New York City.

Trump is now attacking the Pope for speaking out against war while posting images of himself as a messianic figure.
This is not only offensive. It is deranged, egomaniacal behavior.
When will Republicans in Congress stop blindly following this dangerous and unhinged man?

One month after starting the war in Iran, this is the statement of the President of the United States on Easter Sunday.
These are the ravings of a dangerous and mentally unbalanced individual. Congress has got to act NOW. End this war.

Thanks to the Red Wheelbarrow reading series in Rutherford for inviting me to be a feature.
(And it was fun to see William Carlos Williams' old house down the block!)

Yay, @lsupress posted the video for my talk yesterday. In the second half I try to answer some thorny questions about surrealism. 🐟🚲

Grateful to @clereviewbooks for publishing my essay, "The Abyss of Fascism"!
"Lacan’s Real is not the stories and laws which we think make up reality, but the raw void that appears when those stories and laws collapse. An abyss just out of reach, forever."

"The scorching darkness underneath fascism is due, at least in part, to the way fascism replaces human beings with abstractions: race, purity, nation, rules."
