Endless thanks to Vassar Review for this startling and exquisite collection exploring "Frame & Forgery"—and for including my poem "The House on Colbert Street" alongside so many fantastic works of writing and art! I'm hypnotized by this ethereal cover! vassar-review.vassarspaces.net/wp-content/u...

Cover art for the 2025 issue of "The Vassar Review" with the theme of "Frame and Forgery." Art is "The Skinnydippers" by Anninka Tucksmith: oil on panel showing women (painted blood-red) skinny-dipping in a small body of water, painted in dark greens with a green and gold horizon.

Listening to Michael Cerveris and Oskar Eustis at the New Orleans Book Festival healed something in me that had broken. I am perpetually grateful for opportunities that allow me to listen to enthusiastic, dedicated voices who are championing art, theater, poetry, and purpose.

Behold: My new candle

A silver tin with a blue label: Great Gatsby Scented Candle
Inside, you can see a very detailed white wax house, sitting on green wax grass, in a blue wax lake.

Side of the tin reads:
Smells like champagne - because come on have you even read this book?
There are only the pursued, the pursuing, the busy, and the tired. Which are you?
a) Pursued
b) Pursuing
c) Busy
d) Tired
e) c and d

and a picture of a green lantern hanging off a dock, with the text: "Here is a green light for you to stare at"

Interior pic of the candle: the blue wax "lake" almost looks reflective. The white wax house is multi-storied, with awnings and windows and steeples. From this angle, we can see a brown wax pier leading into the lake.

Not pictured: me standing on the bench of the electric keyboard I got five years ago when I thought I'd teach myself, you know, music, before leaping into poetry instead. Also not pictured: the poetic works I stepped away from to stand on a bench and take this photo. Pictured: brief moment of joy. 🦎

The underside of a gecko is visible through frosted glass, illuminated by an unseen city street, shadowed by the shape of the spectator's phone. Its head is raised, tail is curled, and toepads spread wide—waiting.
