Sample Poems

"Pretexts" sequence from Combing the Waves available online through Light and Dust.

"The language in Combing the Waves is not poetic in the usual sense, but it is startling because of its conversational tone. Inside these poems, there is a sense of isolation and secrecy combined with a need to reach beyond these barriers to touch... this collection is witty, sharp and very clever. At the same time, a voice of incredible clarity breaks through the cunning of the poet to speak some very simple truths. I found it astonishing."
