God Forgives, Brothers Don't
A book review
Reposting because I dislike rust.

Snow falls between notes
of a lone bugle calling —
muted by cloud chords.
A murder of missiles flies
past crooning crows on dead wood.


Silver bugle
A tanka series
Summer grasses—
All that remains
of soldiers' dreams.
Basho, 1689.
War dreams of itself.
I wish I didn’t write a book so relevant.


Wasted Blood: From War, Poetry
A collection of poems by Josh Datko.
I performed a live stichomancy reading today. It’s at the 49 minute mark.
Legally, I must say I am not a licensed stichomancer.


Poetry on Tape 20.2.26
With 100% more stichomancy
They exist. 🥳
I talked with @No Good Kid this morning and we are happy with them!
The books are in Europe, I have the red cassettes, soon they will meet and I will get them shipped out.
Thank you for all those that preordered! In the spirit of keeping things analog, I am only accepting orders via post, which is still available.
A digital version, including audio, will be made available once the analog ones have been enjoyed.
I will be in the EU in March and can send some maybe with Paketa when I get there.

People underestimate what they can accomplish in a year.
One year ago today, I published my first poem.
Since then I have:
- produced 12 issues of bitpunk.fm
- shipped or hand delivered over 300 tapes
- Read over 190 poems on 38 live poetry shows, every Friday.
- Published to bitpunkfm.substack.com over 140 poems
- 7 open mic performances including 1 in Prague
- Participated in 2 satellite spotlights
- Had 2 poems and 2 photos published in 1 subversive zine
- Performed poetry at 1 Dark Prague event
Some people count sats, followers, downloads, or other metrics, but these are the metrics that matter to me.
Thanks everyone who has been following along. I am excited to keep the tapes rolling this next year and launch my first poetry book and audio book, wastedblood.com
Without cassettes you will never have the pleasure of opening a box of tapes and finding this.
