Thanks so much! Please could you make one change - entirely my fault; I must update this with Amazon - right at the end, please could you replace 'the Alliance of Independent Authors' with 'the Society of Authors'. Thanks in advance!

So sorry! Didn't see your reply. A signed copy of psychological thriller LIES BETWEEN FRIENDS. She can’t trust her husband. She can’t trust her friends. Can she even trust herself? A young woman stays in a toxic marriage for the sake of her kids - until murder sends her reeling into more danger.

I still can’t quite believe I have a poem in this magical issue of Alaska Quarterly Review behind this gorgeous cover photograph. Many thanks to Ronald Spatz for including my work in these pages. (Photo taken beneath the magnolia tree where I wrote “a sudden chorus”.)

Jill Kitchen
a sudden chorus
magnolia leaf like a shield like a dress you could make into armor into a crown to keep off the unwanted advances of ice storm
fiber thick enough to eat to line your gut to make a home a shelter even a width of blanket woven with the flex & bend
of honeysuckle vine the kind that sings virginia sweet not the red spears you planted in colorado that waited
until you were leaving to bloom to salute the sad curl of avocado grown from seed during early days of pandemic
suddenly surprised to find itself in high altitude & winter after being born into fruit in mexico does the cherry tree
remember how you held her caressed the soil at her edges wondered over her white summons of flowering her june of cherries
