February 12, 2021February 14, 2021 ~ Yousef Alqamoussi

All of the good people are in hiding, and there’s no escaping the idiots. So there’s this astounding young woman on Twitter whose name I’ll spare you so as not to perpetuate any more of her syphilitic diarrheic mop vomit of an excuse for critical thought. But anyway, this woman once objected to a man … Continue reading chapter one 02122021 2300

Nice guys finish last, it’s true. But kind men, they never finish at all. They go on forever. So what’s the difference? Because there is a whole cavern’s chasm's worth of difference between a kind man and a nice guy. Both of them won’t mess with you. Both of them don’t want any trouble. But … Continue reading chapter one 02122021 2200

To be ALI, or not to be ALI?

I get the sense that we’re all trying to say the same thing, but we’re so used to fighting that we hardly notice.

For a guy who's learned a lot of words, I’m having a serious problem with words. I thought I’d take a shot and write a short essay to introduce my upcoming revision to a previously-published poem called Heartbreak Morrow, which I was planning to release some time this month.

Little by little you will no longer be able to oxygenate. Most people at this critical stage of life make a … Continue reading chapter one 01292021 1300
