…SO Honored that I’ve actually been having nightmares about seeing my name in this kind of table of contents.
But seriously, go get the issue! Not to read my poem but to read the whole thing—it is an amazing collection!

✨Dream pub since 2004✨In high school I used to spend hours in Borders (RIP) reading issues of Ploughshares, trying to understand how one might accomplish the caliber of poetry on display in each issue. It’s still my favorite pub, so I am beyond honored to have a poem in the Spring 2025 issue!

On the other hand, I wrote “Milk” last fall after waking up early itching to write. It just sprung from me fully formed like god from a kneecap. I adjusted the ending and that’s it. It saw just 1 rejection. But “Milk” is based on an accident I witnessed in 2016 that I’ve been processing ever since.

I started drafting “Subsistence” in 2018, and it took quite some time to get right. Over the years it garnered 16 rejections (5 encouraged) and went through countless drafts. I’m very proud of this version and happy to see it among such awesome company.

I just received the 2025 spring issue of @northamerreview.bsky.social and I am loving the large format layout! I have two poems in here that were selected as James Hearst Poetry Prize finalists. Here is a little bit about their (opposite) histories.
