Wow! I just got my contributor copies of The Iowa Review and I’m touched and delighted to see that my poems open the issue, and that the first one, which has kite flying in it, has a marvelous photo of kites opposite it.

I’m thrilled to received my contributor’s copy of The American Poetry Review with my poem “We Couldn’t Be More Biological.” This is my 2nd appearance in APR and I’m spinning around the house doing a whirly dance just like the 1st time. Thank you Elizabeth Scanlon!

“The Island Designated Yes,” a prose poem I co-wrote with Dustin Nightingale, has just been published online at The Shore.
It’s very short. It’s a love poem. And it mentions indigo cherry drops which are tomatoes we grow every year and taste like when funk songs mention sunshine. I hope you enjoy it.
Huge thank yous to editors Caroline Chavatel, Emma DePanise, John A. Nieves!
