Watch and listen to me read some of my recent poetry at the Underground Lit Fest!

 In case you might be interested in hearing me read some of my own poetry...well...this video is of me reading some of my own recent poetry at the Underground Lit Fest last month!

It was wonderful to be a part of this event and hear lots of other writers read some of their creative work too. Surrounded by different voices and styles.

NEW! My poem "Empty Holes for Eyes" is newly appearing in The Literary Underground, In Conversation!

"...Then I realize

able to see. Which means I’m still stuck
in a dream. What if I can’t wake myself
up this time?"

within my poem "Empty Holes for Eyes", appearing in The Literary Underground, In Conversation today

NEW! My poem "No Longer Part of the Latest Scene" is making an appearance in MasticadoresUSA!

"Part of me blames it on wildlife.
Part of me blames it on ageism.
Part of me blames it on myself
for being a dullard or at least duller
than I used to be. Lacking in visible vibrancy."

in my poem, "No Longer Part of the Latest Scene", which is newly appearing in MasticadoresUSA
