Kick
I’d complain it’s too hot But I know you and you would tell me that your skin was practically peeling off the bone yesterday. And you wouldn’t remember the metal sign with the dachshund cut out in curly q’s that marked the entrance to the hideout where I am sweating intoContinue reading “Kick”
Feet
The puddles that formed in my husband and I’s backyard after a rain smelled different than the ones outside Sarah’s. I loved the way it felt to be drenched standing in front of her downtown one-bedroom, flirting with the rapid waters of brown arroyos, angry that they must twist and turn through oil slick streetsContinue reading “Feet”

It’s National Poetry Month, ya’ll! You better believe that means I am reading a ton of poetry for this feature (and, you know, also because I love poetry).

When I was in college, I would walk around campus on the phone with bare feet. I’d feel my toes dipping into the soft earth and let them be warm, covered in mud and slick stone. My toes are curled and cracked and filled with callouses. They are flexible beans on the edge ofContinue reading “Toes”

What I’m Reading- March 2019
This month’s list is a little shorter than February, but for good reason, I swear! …Okay maybe it’s not that great of a reason. Basically, I just have been writing a little more than I have been reading this month, which is just the way she goes sometimes. The texts I have been reading haveContinue reading “What I’m Reading- March 2019”
Listening to Your Body
Please excuse the rambling: Recently, my body wants to paint and write poetry and creative non-fiction. It does not want to play nicely with books and classes and teaching. It wants to spend late nights agonizing over words and words that come from me and nowhere else. My biggest struggle this Spring semester has beenContinue reading “Listening to Your Body”
