3 poems to start the new year!

And an already happy new year! Wildnerness House Literary Review has just accepted three poems for publication in early January, 2010. Everyone is Cold, Sometimes- the partial disintegration of a relationship upon the cold Massachusetts shore, Artificial Light, and An Aftermath can all be found then at www.whlreview.com. I'll likely post a few of them here for easier access once they're officially published.

Open Letters out now!

The November edition of Open Letters is now out! My poem, Surely I'm Convinced, headlines the new poems for the issue. Please check it out at www.openlettersmonthly.com.


Surely I’m Convinced

a word understood must have been uttered aloud.

a word uttered must travel vast distances
to define itself.

one word will some day imbue
the rest with meaning.



Surely I’m Convinced

the winter wind speaks
to one person at a time,
and just now I possess its conversation.

the snow owl communicates with god
through its wake of rodent bones and fur.

utter silence has no counterpart.
