I am happy to announce that my first poetry collection has been published! Ten years of poems, finally out in the world! It’s all quite personal, and I hesitated to include some of the poems, but in the end, they all belong on the map of my existence.
The book was just released, and I would really love for you all to order a copy and let me know what you think! Just click on the cover to order.
When I think of little hollows, I think of a hollow in a tree or in a thicket of brush. I think of the slight concave area just above a hip or collar bone. The dip at the top of a man’s shoulder or the soft depression at the top of a woman’s inner thigh. But I also think of the hollow places we all have inside us that most will never see. Those small voids that become full when we experience extraordinary love and connection. These are the hollows that draw us in and make us seek ways to fit together.
