  1. ...and thank you, friends, when last spring

    the hyacinth bells rang

    and the crocuses flaunted

    their upturned skirts, and a quiet roved
    
the beehive which when I entered

    were snugged two or three dead

    fist-sized clutches of bees between the frames,

    almost clinging to one another,

    this one’s tiny head pushed
    
into another’s tiny wing,

    one’s forelegs resting on another’s face,

    the translucent paper of their wings fluttering
    
beneath my breath...

  6. Ross Gay is fantastic and The Book of Delights Stands up well to multiple readings. It is the kind of perfectly crafted poetic prose that can make one wonder if it was edited at all (any writer would know the answer is a thundering yes). But dear god. So good. #bookstodon #RossGay #delight

  12. There is a new episode of my conversation series, "Let's Talk!" available; I talked last summer with Prof Kiara Jorgenson of St. Olaf College. We discuss the expanding lives of students, intersectional justice, place-based vocation, panentheism, and more: youtu.be/-0SZnD3AWJ8
