🐟🎣 photo from 2024: this was my 1st time featuring at the @dirtygerund at the @ralphs_rock_diner in Worcester, MA. @narklizard is a badass host (&poet) and I love the dirty gerund!!! Thank you for having me :’3

(Photo my girlfriend Đình took of me reading/performing a poem w/ her film camera!)

sorry I didn’t post any of these until now! it was difficult to post online during a time of housing insecurity (which was 2024-2025 for my gf & I!) + on going medical/health issues, and surviving traumatic situations + material conditions. Photo shows me with short black hair, in a brownish-green cowboy hat and black vest, reading a poem at Ralph’s Diner.
