Here’s a Mary Oliver poem I read this past week for the first time, from the brilliant collection Devotions, that my sister gave me several years ago. A few times a month, I open it up to a random page, and read whatever poem it lands on. This week was this one.
I was a guest on my first ever podcast💥 The wonderful Friend of a Friend, with Stephanie Conn. We talked about time travel, and little black cats, and mixtapes and Wes Anderson. Click here to listen. Thanks so much to Stephanie for having me on her show.
Here’s the Richard Brautigan poem that I reference in the interview
Terlingua Dinosaur, and several other of my photographs were published in the Winter issue of Thimble Literary Magazine. View it here
🎧 Here’s a link to the most recent Transmissions mixtape if you missed it.

The podcast interview with Stephanie Conn was out of this world, my friend. Take that rocket ship to the outer limits 🌙🪐💫
Was great to have you on the show!
And I love that poem, too. I”ve thought about dogs, and how nice it must be to be them, if they have a good life. They know how to enjoy the present moment.
