“Mina”
Vortex Literary Magazine, 2018 Issue

“Yellow Flowers on the Kitchen Table”,
The Sound of Winchester, March Issue, 2018

“Of course she doesn’t know this, but she forgets, my girl. Maybe one day she’ll forget me. But that doesn’t matter. And for now, I do the only thing I can, to make sure that the world seems a bit friendlier, as her memories turn to smoke signals no one can decipher for her.”

“When we’re seventy-four
I’ll smack your butt in the kitchen
as you take out the turkey,
and our daughter of fourty-three will sigh and tell us

and steal kisses by the roast potatoes”
