New Work
Below is a selection of poems from my current work-in-progress–my second full-length collection of poems–which is about birds, climate change, parenthood, grief, and joy. My thanks to the editors of the publications in which these poems appear, including The Maynard, Word and Colour, Bird’s Thumb, DUSIE, and talking about strawberries all the time.

Others poems from my working manuscript have been published elsewhere, in print, including “Wedding Anniversary,” the winner of the 2016 Nick Blatchford Occasional Verse Contest with The New Quarterly.
