Madison 3, or The Departure Post

The poets brought me here, and it's poets who will help me leave. The Minneapolis team was kind enough to offer me a ride out, which leaves in a few minutes.

Nationals was like taking a bath of really hot and really cold water that don't quite ever mix. Some parts of it were magical, and beautiful and full of writing prompts, and other parts made me feel like my insides were breaking. Rachel McKibbens is my new favorite poet. I have places to stay in every city I'm traveling to, officially. There's a new stop on the tour: Salt Lake City, Utah.

Poets, you are mishpacha, every one of you.
