“2025.15” in Abundance Literary Magazine
Delighted to have a new sonnet from my ongoing series, “2025.15,” in the third issue of Abundance Literary Magazine (my poem is the second one in). Thanks to Yeiri Farias and the other editors for including my work.
“2025.13–14” in Dazed Santa

Thanks to the Emma Grey Rose, Jeff Edwards, and Melinda Snyder for publishing!
“2026.01” in As of Fire: Poets and Pentecost (Bainbridge Island Press)
Another sonnet from the third volume of my ongoing sequence, “2026.01,” was just published in As of Fire: Poets and Pentecost, edited by Tamarah Rockwood and published by Bainbridge Island Press.
“2025.02,” “2025.04,” “2025.05–06,” “2025.07,” and “2025.11” in Other Rooms Press
And lo, today is one of those great good days in which I have two publications. “2025.02,” “2025.04,” “2025.05–06” (p. 2), “2025.07,” and “2025.11,” some of my most recent sonnets that most directly comment on this moment we find ourselves living through, just came out in Other Rooms Press. Here‘s a page that gathers the poems together (and then right click the images and open them into new tab so you can zoom in) or else click on the individual poem links above.
