Many of you have heard me throw down spoken word at @atlfoodandwine, the #Elbys, or the @BeardFoundation House, typically in the name of #Virginia, fun, or food politics. But from my earliest days as a #slampoet, I also aimed to tackle weightier issues. Ahead of next week’s @Cannes_Lions International Festival of Creativity, I was commissioned by @faithpopcorn’s @brainreserve to write a #poem on a thorny topic: the future of masculinity. I am grateful to be a woke bullhorn on this matter. Verse doth flow on page 10. Link in bio. #futuremasculinity #canneslions #canneslions2018

This changes the whole complexion of my day. A box of @marieveronique_ small-batch #skincare just hit my doorstep. I’ve been a @skinceuticals devotee for sometime. Let’s take these out for a test-drive. Anyone tried em before? I’m skintrigued.

It’s the little things. Like unboxing day... and handmade triangles. A fresh-baked batch of bespoke @post_rider_press #businesscards with elegant #blindpress touches along the edges makes me oh so happy. What does your card say about you?

Helluva way to receive an invitation! Grazie for the #messageinabottle, @jeffersonsbourbon. Just in time for that run to the roses. #Derby 🐎🏁🌹🏆 #whiskey #bourbon
Licked with char and filled with salty-sweet tenderness... BEST home-cooked #lamb of my life last night. Because, #koji. Loin by @bordersprings, crust by fire and koji. Keep eyes peeled for my feature on the magic mold that transforms yum into #yumbelieveable in the next @popsci.

Nearly took out my #Leica! Breaking bread, breaking glass... synchronized #sabrage with three new #somm friends at an old fave winery. @flightwinebardc @bourbonsteakdc @dbgbdc #vawineexperience #vavineyardmonth #vawine @leicastoreboston @leica_camera #vlux #slomo
