If a mime mimes a mime miming his hanging of himself, will anybody laugh?”

The sound is trash and I flubbed the last line, but that’s probably fitting for old Shel. youtube.com/shorts/NdEvj...
Thanks so much to the man @Dee_P_R_Kay for these actual kind words about #trashpomes4trashpeople "Even though these poems deal with heavy issues, the bright spot is Drevlow’s humor and willingness to be a rainbow in hell amidst the trash heap." www.goodreads.com/book/show/25...
Thanks so much @bulbregion.bsky.social. Y'all rock the hardest.
Ah, thanks so much. You rock.
Very humbled by all the praise coming in for TRASH POMES FOR TRASH PEOPLE:

Just finished reading “Ina-Baby: a love story in reverse” by @thedrevlow.bsky.social published by @cowboyjamboree.bsky.social and it has already shifted my thinking about every word I’ve ever written. Like, I want I do- over. Burn it all down. My God, this book.
By the way, DM me your address and I'm happy to trade you a copy of *trash poems 4 trash people* for a review (even just a goodreads or amazon or substack or whatever). a.co/d/0hIsZb2w
All right let's try this again with actual link to the American version (all 8k characters of it): www.amazon.com/Trash-Poems-...
Yeah, Amazon, as usual, fucked up the link, and I tried to shorten it the way they told me and that fucked it up too. Here's the biggie: www.amazon.com/Trash-Poems-...
ah, you're the best. yeah it was a ride writing this one.
ooh, the fun you'll have with ina-baby and then the questions you'll have afterward.

In other news, I'm very honored to be a part of the very kickass Michigan City Review folks. Would be grateful if you took a look my shorty pomes and maybe shared (if you don't completely hate them). mcrb.neocities.org/TwoPoems_Dre...
I'll work on it.
Ooh, I grew up with goats. I know well the mating call of the angry goat.
Ooh, as do mine. I have 4 of them--and two pitbulls who have eating allergies & fart the worst farts I've ever smelled. And also, I would love to live next door to you, though you would have to listen to my back-porch guitar sessions of me singing Heart of Gold in a voice like forks on chalkboards.
You're a rock star.
So many really cool people I got to meet and talk to in Baltimore, but I have to give a special shout out to
@tracieadams.bsky.social & @lizdebeerwriter.bsky.social
for being so kind & supportive. AWP is a ripoff is a lot of hot garbage, but finding people who actually give a shit means a lot.
Major thanks to @brettpribble.bsky.social and all the beautiful @GhostParachute.bsky.social for letting me sully their reading with my smut. Thanks for everybody else who read their killer stuff and everybody else who came out versus the other million readings. www.youtube.com/shorts/0r4NL...
Thanks again to Mike Chin for organizing this reading & all the killer readers from @cowboyjamboree.bsky.social & Malarky Books. And allowing me to do my fat-guy wannabe white guy spoken-worder schtick. youtu.be/qTrHDk99A8w?...

Huge thanks to @apconmag.bsky.social & Jacob Everett for publishing "No Man Is an island but I am not a man" (part of my upcoming collection trash pomes 4 trash people). Would be grateful if you'd take a whiff. Or check out all their other kickass stuff apocalypse-confidential.com/2026/03/02/n...
Probably should've tagged @cowboyjamboree.bsky.social

My short story "127 Feet" appears in the new @mrbullbull.bsky.social anthology. Bull published it last year (thx @thedrevlow.bsky.social) and it's a story I had so much fun writing. I hope you'll check it out and the other contributor stories as well--it's only $6! www.amazon.com/dp/B0GPX54CR...
