Thread is a spontaneous writing practice. A ritual of connection. An exchange, which begins with a simple invitation: Give me a word, and I’ll write you a poem. On the spot. On my 1950 Royal Typewriter. With just a word and a few moments, I am able to tug at the thread of whatever is at the heart of the request. I do this by paying deep attention not only to the person asking for words, but to eve

rything that presents itself in that moment. I follow that thread, saying yes to what emerges. Each poem created is utterly unique and completely personal, often unearthing layers of meaning that surprise, delight and humble.

One of the many aches of the pandemic was not being able to write for folks in person. I’ve missed the magic of channeling a poem in the moment, the sweetness of watching it land.

Who knows what the coming months will look like, or if gathering will still be safe. Grateful I got to spend some time this summer at Medomak, making, teaching, and writing poems on the spot. Look closely to catch a glimpse of my book of poems about making, , available on my website.
