So we’re on vacation, walking down the street in Iowa City looking for a place to eat dinner when I think pass a store and think WAIT! PRAIRIE LIGHTS, I’VE HEARD OF THAT PLACE! So over dinner I’m like, “Listen, I am going to that bookstore.” And as soon as we were done eating I took my oldest kid and we scooted over. . . I was in love as soon as I walked in. I browsed around, picking up lots of books and putting them down again, until I saw their amazing poetry section and settled in to comb through it. I picked up the Erdrich because I’ve loved another collection of hers, the Roripaugh because the subject matter sounded amazing, and the Hyesoon because she’s been on my radar since reading an amazing twitter thread on international writers earlier this month. Then Ms. Ice Sandwich just caught my eye as I was browsing — I love the cover design on this series. . . Photographed on a hotel bed because I am still on vacation for a few more days, but was too impatient to wait to do a whole vacation book haul when I get home. . . I think my poetry buying slump is over. . . #bookhaul #prairielights #prairielightsbookstore #msicesandwich #miekokawakami #louisehealkawai #tsunamivsthefukushima50 #leeannroripaugh #heideerdrich #nationalmonuments #autobiographyofdeath #kimhyesoon #donmeechoi #newdirectionsbooks #michiganstateuniversitypress #milkweededitions #pushkinpress https://www.instagram.com/p/B0mnPlMgpWg/?igshid=nqoi6yjb5jpx

#100days100bookshops - Prairie Lights Book Store located in Iowa was established in 1978 by Jim Harris. It now houses 3 and a half storeys of books with a coffee shop occupying the remaining half storey. Its facade is supposed to resemble that of a face ( can you see it? 😂😂) #prairielights #prairielightsbookstore #bookshopsaroundtheworld

Photo & Poem: Dark Solstice

Christmas lights are a poor trade for the wildfire clouds at dawn, iridescent light draining the midnight purple fringe

from the sky. Jangling bells no match for the cool haunting notes echoing from the hawk gliding circles above the frozen

pond. Obligatory wishes of the season from the dentist, glitter on paper, only mock the words between us that sparkle, still

hanging in the…

“Wait. So the ontology here amounts to our conflict being the sole animating force in our relative divinity? To argue makes us divine? I gotta say, I’m on board with that.” —John Ira Thomas

Photo Challenge and Poem: Rise/Set

Photo Challenge and Poem: Rise/Set

  What is it about a sunset that I cannot look away? Trying to make out a small movement, barely caught with the edge of my eye, my dusk vision falters, squinting toward

the south pasture. Then the sunset slams across the sky, sideways light blasting slim prairie grass shadows flat to the ground. Whatever moved has become as still as me, listening

to the upbeat honking of geese on the pond. The…
