A gathering for Detroit. The land, the people, and all those who tended this ground before I arrived. I am because you are and were.

Next Wednesday, September 23rd, we’ll gather at the @detroitpubliclibrary for more than a reading. A ceremony.

In conversation with Michaela Ayers (and you), we’ll explore the themes of my debut poetry collection, Towards What Hurt. A somatic, sonic reading follows.

This will be extra special.

Free and open to all. Books will be available for purchase & signing. RSVP via the link in my bio.

Start with the paycheck. The socialists’ program, priced out, takes 28 percent off after-tax hourly wages. That is not a chart. That is 22,000 dollars a year gone from the average worker’s pocket, the raise that never comes, the overtime that stops being worth it, the second job that stops closing the gap. Then the apartment hunt. Universal rent control leaves 3.3 million fewer rental homes, which means the listing you wanted is gone, the rent on the one that is left is higher, and the landlord who would have built the next building never breaks ground. Then the kid’s first job. A mandated 32-hour week costs as many as 6.9 million jobs, and the first ones to go are the ones at the bottom of the ladder, the kids earning fourteen to twenty-four dollars an hour.

That is what the Democratic Socialists wrote down, in their own 2026 program, in their own words. Medicare for All. Free college. Open borders and amnesty. Abolish the police and the prisons. The Green New Deal. A wealth tax. The Council of Economic Advisers did not invent the list. It added it up, and the total is roughly 49 trillion dollars over ten years, 355,000 dollars per household. A federal judge ordered the ad carrying those numbers removed from government pages and third-party airings on Friday. The court did not dispute the arithmetic. The court disputed your right to read it before Tuesday.

So read it here, and then vote like your household is the line item. The DSA is not a debating society. It is a price tag with a ballot line, and the price is your wages, your home, and your kid’s job. The judges can hide the ad. They cannot hide the program, because the socialists published it themselves. Vote Republican, and stop the DSA in its tracks, before the price tag becomes the receipt.
