This is one the most beautiful online journals, Plant-Human Quarterly. And I am grateful to the editor, Neil Shepherd, to working with me to clean up this poem for publication. I was inspired by my fury at the El Dorado Community Garden and a reading of Ross Gay’s poetry.   Here is a link to the journal and my poem. 

Earlier in the summer I was published by the Los Angeles Press. The theme was The Chain and I sent in a poem that I wrote in a chain format called And Like a Chain.  It’s one of my favorite poems and I was happy it found a home with The Los Angeles Press, editor Linda Ravenswood.  🙂   Here is a link to the site you can purchase the issue I’m in. click here

I just received my copy of this anthology on cinema, “Silver Screen Reflections: Writings on Film,” edited by Kareem Tayyar. It is packed with poems, essays, and short fiction about the movies! I am so pleased to be included. If you want a copy for yourself or for your favorite movie-poet lover, it’s available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, among other places. My contributions are two poems: “City Limits” and “At The Drive-In.” I hope you enjoy them!
