I just thought I'd mark another anniversary of the day of my birth.
This year, I'm in yet another wild, turbulent place. But I've had a chance to read a couple of poetry books--Karen An-Hwei Lee's Ardor and Todd Boss's Yellowrocket. Two very different books, but both of them explore the kinds of ecologies we encounter in the 21st century. Pick up both. At once. Yes, you, you ecopoets.
Happy Birthday!
You are lucky to have the coolest date as your birthday, the only date that is a sentence!
I guess that's pretty fitting for a poet.

No. You can't make me. Happy b-day. Be ecological.
