Type of stories I was excited just to tell my friends about. The stories are imaginatively romantic, delightfully fantastical, & soooo poignantly creative. Popular for a reason

For our last project in my grad school poetry class, our professor (adorable, brilliant, 80 yrs old) had us each choose a poet to "sleep" with for a few weeks (i.e., get hooked on them & read absolutely everything you can, dine with them, take them to bed, write emulation poems/make ur own art out of theirs, etc.). ππππ
Choosing to consume just one thingβ& consume it fullyβfelt like a small rebellion against today's attention economy. It stretched curiosity muscles I didn't even realize had become atrophied. So
EVERYBODY SHOULD SLEEP WITH A POET! Or a novelist! Or a writer of some sort!
I think summer is the perfect time to experiment w spending time w one writer !!

I always find myself back here when I'm at home. There's just something re-orienting about the way it's a lil slice of your town that has its own self-contained vibe where all these different types of people come and do their thing quietly. Awesome

What will become of our generation that seems to believe every thought π is both worth sharing and NEEDS to be shared?
Enough of that. Keep more things to yourself. There is still beauty in sharing but Quiet vibes are in
