New Poems

Poems destined for Material are slowly making their way into the world. The sonnet Bad Mother has just been published in The Pedestal, and Driving Without Lights is coming out shortly in the summer issue of Poetry Review, Dreams of Elsewhere.

Meanwhile, Anvil have offered me a publication slot: summer 2008.
