Good Mourning

An ekphrastic poem is a vivid description of a scene or, more commonly, a work of art. Through the imaginative act of narrating and reflecting on the action of a painting or sculpture or photo, the poet may amplify and expand its meaning.  

When he was still of this world, Pawpaw was up and at ’em at daybreak, coffee in hand, ready to beat the world. He’d walk out into that…

Triggered by Tarantino

On the eve of Quentin Tarantino’s latest release, I can’t help but think back to a little over a year ago when the Twittersphere lost its mind over Quentin’s casting for “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.” The lack of female castings and his perceived all white cast stirred the social justice warriors to write character assassination hit pieces about the man’s toxic masculinity and racist…

The Party

“Get your coat on, we’re going to miss it!” Matty yells from downstairs. It’s the first party we’ve ever been invited to, and seniors are going to be there. He’s about to come out of his skin, and I would much rather stay at home in my pajamas and curl up with my dog. I reluctantly grab my coat and head for the door. Matty, a squatty, chub of a high school sophomore is waiting eagerly at the…
