new poem up at Glass!

Just a quick post to announce the release of the latest issue of Glass: A Journal of Poetry! This issue features my poem “Speaking Spanish on the Streets of NYC” as well as a small paragraph giving insight into the writing of the poem.

Excited to be in great company including Caseyrenée Lopez, Kristen Brida, Rebecca Valley, and Andrew Kozma among other great writers. Check out the rest of the issue here.

Special thanks to Anthony Frame for creating such a great and supportive community!

And thank you to everyone for the warm response to my new Instagram poetry project — poetryamano!

See you Friday!

new CR blog post & instagram project!

osowskiHappy to share my latest post for the Cincinnati Review blog, a microreview & interview of Leah Poole Osowski’s Hover Over Her!

In this microreview, I discuss Osowski’s work via “the poetics of suddenness.”

Also, I wanted to share a new Instagram poetry project I’ve started entitled poetryamano (poetry by hand). This account will focus on sharing poems written by hand.

I’m excited to see what new directions this takes my writing and what it opens up in terms of form. The latest posts will appear here on the sidebar of this site, but the full account can be accessed here.

Be sure to check out my other account as well – which is more in line with the spirit of this blog and my life. Both accounts are without a doubt centered around poemtrees 🙂

I hope you and yours are well during these trying times.

See you Friday!
