Jumpin’ for joy to have my poem “Raise It All Like Food to the Sky” accepted for the American Pop Culture Almanac: 1776-2026. Huge thanks to editor J.D. Isip…and to the movie The Princess Bride, for the inspiration, and much else.
Oh.My.Goodness. Poetry Northwest just accepted my long poem “Bone Above Our Heart” one of the poetic experiments I started 2 summers ago, carrying around a special notebook during my travels, collecting images, bits of overheard dialogue, to build a long poem from (it’s 5 pages, which is long for me). I’m over-the-moon to have this poem appear in Poetry Northwest. It’ll be my third appearance in this awesome journal! Thank you so much Bill Carty, Shriram Sivaramakrishnan, Keetje Kuipers, and everyone at PN!
