I am a school teacher and live in Oregon. I have published several poems and translations of poems in the past (Arion, Notre Dame Review, Atlanta Review, American Journal of Poetry).

“The Region,” “Shapes Of The Word,” and “Wedding”

To drive past Coop City late on Saturday night
Is to see what the human worm can weave –
The coral towers stand out their lights against
The pitch-night Sound
