We Green Adults; Triple Dog Dare; Be Careful With Yourself

I found a phone / book belly-up on the shore, dialed the number for my future. / It just rang and rang. Nonexistent or infinite.

This excerpt comes from "We Green Adults," one of three poems featured in the Spring 2025 anthology from Querencia Press. This piece was written early in 2022. "Triple Dog Dare" and "Be Careful With Yourself" were written later that year and both feature in the chapbook Tomatoes Beverly, now out with Querencia Press. 

The anthology, which features 53 contributors, can be purchased in print and digital forms here.
