"Where Do the Lost Things Go" was published by Plough Quarterly in June of 2023.
"Lost things live under couch cushions, behind dressers, in old coat pockets. They still exist, in places beyond our sight. I had seen his body, which was now ashes in an urn, but where was Peter’s spirit?"
"Ad Fontes" appeared in the New Verse Review, Summer 2025.
"The line of demarcation between prose and verse is measure. Meter is inherent in verse but not in prose. A poet is a maker. A poet makes poems. The raw materials are syllables, words, lines, and for millennia, meter and rhyme. If we fail to teach the rudiments of measure, we deprive students of meter, arguably the most powerful tool of the poet’s craft."
