I try. I try to understand but metaphor wrapped in simile wrapped in allegory wrapped in analogy is too hard.

I feel like we need a poetry Tim Gunn to come in and tell people when they need to pull it back because it’s overworked.

Some of it is magical and wonderful and…

#yes nicole I’m talking to you

The dream of America’s Next Top Poet lives on! Or Project Poetry?

I’d volunteer to be Tim Gunn but that means I would have to be nice. I’d rather be Heidi Klum. “WE ASKED YOU FOR A CHARMING SESTINA AND YOU GAVE US A DULL, LIFELESS PANTOUM. YOU ARE OUT. AUF WIEDERSEHEN. RELEASE THE HOUNDS.”

i think TV needs more poetry-based reality shows. there is a whole market of hilarious douchebaggery that has yet to be tapped and drained for primetime television. like, america? if you thought the big bang theory is a hilarious portrait of a random niche culture, YOU HAVE YET TO SEE THE URBAN POETRY SCENE. GOD. I DIE THINKING OF IT.

The lovely Susannah Wexler has written up the equally lovely Nicole Steinberg’s Getting Lucky series—part of which appeared in Moonshot Magazine—a couple weeks ago for Sadie Magazine. This is just all kinds of genius.

This is so great. Thank you, Rohin, darling boy, for making it happen.

It’s great to see Getting Lucky getting out there more! Fantastic

Yes yes yes! Love these poems!

That’s Thor + chortles. You’re welcome.

I’m thinking Philadelphia needs a Steinburger. What say you all? My basic business model will be to serve excellent burgers and make fun of the customers behind their backs.
