I am publishing a book by Jefferson Hansen next spring titled The Figments Are Here at my book publishing project Post-Asemic Press. The book will come out in 2023. Jeff was a student of the late great poet Robert Creeley. We hang out weekly at The Northeast Tea House here in Minneapolis. I made a short video of Jeff drinking tea: https://youtu.be/qvRGtQpJwY8 Below is a poem from 100 Hybrids, the first book of poetry by Jeff that I published.

It's a relatively simple poem about the modern plights of writers, in't it. Would make a great introductory poem for a collection/chapbook I think.
Spotify, from what I've heard, is a decent platform for artists (namely podcasts and musicians), but not sure how well it has been working for poets of the oral persuasion. And we all know that Facebook is wretched.
I do kind of wonder what all these symbols mean?
it's a cool little poem
I like how this poem breaks the fourth wall by addressing the great elephant in the 21st Century room: modern-day problems and challenges the poetry community face on social media every day.
I really enjoyed that experimental clip! Poets and their coffee houses ey ;)
