Two Poems in Mid-American Review vol. XXXVI no. 2

Posted on by

Having moved this summer, the postal carrier just tracked me down to deliver my contributor copies of Mid-American Review vol. XXXVI no. 2, which contains my poems “One Light in a Field of Other Lights” and “At First It Buzzed Then Even the Buzzing Stopped” — the latter an ode of sorts to my broken garbage disposal. This gorgeous issue features literary goodness from the likes of Kristina Marie Darling, Devon Moore, Michael Meyerhofer, Michael Boccardo, and Doug Sutton-Ramspeck, to name but a few. Warm thanks to Abigail Cloud and the other editors and readers for MAR!

The good folks at Phoebe have also been kind enough to nominate this poem for a Pushcart Prize — my fourth nomination this year. Huge thank yous to Robbie Maakestad, Doug Luman, and the other editors and readers for Phoebe. This poem is particularly close to my heart, and it’s a delight to be able to share it with you.
