I’m happy to offer you Aaron Smith’s sonnet “Sissy.” Does it rhyme? It rhymes so hard that “sissy” is the last word of every line. Aaron Smith’s new book, STOP LYING, was recently released from the University of Pittsburgh Press. https://t.co/mNZoRMSzil

The Folding Cliffs: A Narrative

W. S. Merwin

@pswordwoman I have to say W.S. Merwin. He hoisted a stack of his books onto the lectern and read for what seemed like hours. I had a laughing fit and couldn't suppress it, though I tried. I think he read most of The Folding Cliffs: A Narrative of 19th cent. Hawaii, but oh there was more.
