The Best American Poetry 2019 - Contributor Copies

Contributor copies of The Best American Poetry 2019 arrived earlier this week and I’ve finally taken some pics!

Here’s an excerpt of my poem in the anthology, “I Invite My Parents to a Dinner Party”—and then (click through to see!) my copies, including the hardcover (!!) edition; my contributor note + commentary on how this poem came to be (shoutout to Muriel Leung) (yes, I’m between Victoria Chang and Leonard Cohen—yes, I’m ecstatic 💛); and the back cover, featuring the names of all the contributors (what company! what poets!).
