As part of the celebration of Smartish Pace 27 I made this video of me reading my three poems in the new issue, “The Sky Always Blue Above the Clouds Useless To Us,” “Please Let There Be an Ice Storm This Afternoon” and “Our Breaths Are Weather.” It was May and still snowing here in Syracuse. I hope you enjoy.
Thank you again Stephen Reichert and the rest of the Smartish Pace ensemble for including my poems in this beautiful new issue! 🙂

I’m thrilled to hold my contributor copy of Smartish Pace, which contains my poems, “The Sky Always Blue Above the Clouds Useless To Us,” “Please Let There Be an Ice Storm This Afternoon” and “Our Breaths Are Weather.” It’s an honor to share these pages with so many poets whose work I adore. Thank you so much to Stephen Reichert and the rest of the Smartish Pace crew! Dorianne Laux has a poem in it that begins “Under the blown out stars/ sounds the lone horn” and ends “smother my wet face/ with underwater kisses/ I miss you so much// I could drown” I mean, come on!
