Last night, across
a dusty street corner
I reach
a junk shop—
the sort whose racks & shelves of
old tools & metal signs
are dragged daily outside—
& eventually
realize
I’m perusing Lou Harrison’s bookshelf.
The owner
walks up
& explains he
once’d been hired
to clear out Lou’s home
In the middle of one side
of the shelf
there’s a staircase
which I follow
up & into
a modest
concert hall mezzanine
inside the house
I find myself casually
in the presence
of Lou’s friends
who seem not to know he has died
—Perhaps, an earlier time, before
he’d gone

Leaving work,
prison
in a sunny little rush
I savor this warmth

&
what is written.
But more
the play of light
&
chain-link shadow—
ripplings

The other night
I fell asleep wondering
if any future
or past tenant
of this house we rent
would ever keep their bed
in the room
we use as the living room
How bout a bed
in what serves as our dining room?
I don’t hate these possibilities
but find them kind of appealing, refreshing.
I loved nights spent
in the common space
with friends, from out of town.
As a kid, sleepovers
were a birthday or weekend treat
Or with my siblings
on the living room floor,
sleeping bags
by the fireplace my dad mostly tended,
cartoons on tv in the morning.
My parents sometimes
would use the foldout sofabed,
five of us ending up
in some combination of these placements
*
Our couch pops
so easily out
It’s a signifier
of our lack
of fealty to the coming morning
We have no roommates
to contend with, or to irritate
—just kids
who we could share this with, but haven’t yet
They still are learning
to get to sleep.
I’ve always loved slumber parties
& insist
the inability of grown people
to make a habit
of socializing
without time constraint
makes much the loneliness
of adulthood
*
Would any person keep their bed in our house’s kitchen?
For medical reasons?
Out of obsession
maybe… with baking?
It’d be tight in there… but a cot
or a ‘single’ would fit.
I may
have misheard some principle
from thermodynamics, or cosmology
that given infinite time for wandering,
the elements in a space
will configure in every possible arrangement,
So, a thousand times…
Ten thousand…
A hundred thousand times…?
If we re & re-booted the tenancy
of this house,
how many tries
until
some person puts a bed in the kitchen

I was hoping it was thunder I was hearing
& soft joy when I was certain
A few flashes
assure more to come.
As a voice near-forgotten,
or morning’s dove cooing from Maryland
—recollection.
Night
patters on gutters
& trees & roof,
& through the ceiling
onto two attic steps,
Makes me silent.
to give all the space
to low rumblings

Swattin mama,
battin—
your paws outstretched,
Like a cat
boxin and
wearin backward
the unbuttoned
summershirt you gave me
It keep your tummy warm
this evenin’,
beige-to-blue ombré
I would not
’ve likely chosen.
Goldenhour sun
’s glowin up
your tan arms and cheek skin,
Shinin Vy’s braids
you done today
like a girl of Swiss summer, out
for pickin alps-
meadow wildflowers, but
in a dress—coral-pink
with highlighter-luminous tufting,
& tough black
gloves, fingerless
Up schoolyard hill
old gnarled
maples tower
& watch us,
vaguely menacing
We sneak
past ’em, post-picnic,
on our way back home
cross the street
You two in
a pre-bedtime bath routine
—sweet,
Till Violet’s
expression
twists deep, disturbed
Misheard us
discussing
whether or not
it is “time
to take out her brains”
Shakily, she asks now
if we’re gonna need
to remove “Robert’s brains, too?”
We all crack up
at the frightful
mistake made
cause it’s just—
her hair’s
a little tangled

in the floors or folds

(for it)

Small fly on my hand
white butterfly, wasp
bees on the mountain mint
& milkweed.
Tall, white-flowered cosmos
bend in the breeze
All the way
All of this sways
All these wave in the sunheat
end-a-summer midday.
—
End-a-summer, midday
kalanchoe, sedum.
& coffee grounds, deer shit
What a break, a gift
to be free to see this,
to sleep past eleven,
to sit & watch
this all
—What a freedom
The bee weighing down
the speedwell branch
—Wow…
& then
the rebalance, rebound
So many on the mint
White butterfly weaves
through our backyard junk
Birds are quiet;
the crickets not.
—
For the first in a long time
we last night drank a lot
Then had a mix
of good & bad dreams,
lying beside you
They remind me
you were so tough
to trust
Hard to ask
for honest response.
But earlier
last night
I put all that aside,
behind us,
to treat the night like a date.
(& we’ll enjoy that same treat today)
We were initiated
into a strange room
at our familiar
spot below the street (—“if ya know you know”)
& wandered over to a late show, late.
I’ve had a lifelong thing
’gainst trying too hard
Complete acceptance, it seems
Couldn’t depend on games,
calculations,
behavior
Guess what I’m askin & offerin
’s somethin unusual:
to live outside
social valuation
—
Of all people
knew
you could be different, dude!
& our small olive tree looks good
Pokeweed’s almost contained;
squash vine not.
Wildly, lively it
has overtaken
the old clothesline post
& bird feeders hangin there.
Our wood windchimes
would soon’ve been soundless,
engulfed
We had ta move ’em
to that evergreen branch.
Now they click/clunk lovely
It’s my cue
to be quiet
—
There’re the birds
There’re the birds
words & music

After one
solitary yester-
day of observation
this one
is filled with communion
Mostly unexpected, but
none more so
than when on the metro
as I star the corner
of a page of poetry
the guy
sitting next to me
says: wait,
you like that one

One green wrap
on near-black

twisted
around a barren branch
& another strand
outstretched & swaying,
just an inch
(or two) away
from a second
leafless limb
Watering the mimosa tree,
recovering in the evening

Auggie’s shining a small light through a hole
near the bottom hem in
the old secondhand t-shirt I’m wearing.
He asks
why there’s a hole there
& I show him the dozen-ish little ones
beginning to form up on the chest
He says, “oh,
why is your shirt breaking?”
I tell him I wish it wasn’t, but also
it is old.
“You wish it would stay like it is forever”
I do wish that
“But everything breaks,” he says
We agree
houses, & people, & plants
& even the rocks
all break, eventually
“Nothing lasts forever & everything breaks eventually”
he reconfirms for me
“No one told me, I just knew that.”

The moon lit
the far wall of the ravine, full bright
& the falls
were deafening
Mountain laurel
heaven, lush you
knew it happened somehow
& now
I wish badly
we could have let that child be
& better than me
I would cede my place
with you, in this world
that she could grow
more rightly than we grew

Don’t need to avert
our eyes, you & I have
a different sight
a special practice—
Of Seeing
what is radiant
&& troubled (in the world);
what is both bleak
&& vital
We, together
don't be down-weighed,
not dull & sullen
These days, I’ve treasured
a feeling in my gut
—like hunger, psilocybin
don’t bury—cultivate
our Difference
It’s not what is (or how it’s) served up—
It is the bravery;
It’s the not recoiling.
Look—there is something stirring!,
shimmering
in All of it! We know
how to look

in silence
& from fevered sleep,
next to me,
you stir

can we lie down together

About
My poetry and music grow out of daily life—conversations, parenting, teaching—moments half-felt, half-thought. I follow these undercurrents to see where they lead and what meaning they might hold.
Since 2022, I’ve taught music to incarcerated youth in a maximum-security juvenile facility. Through reflection, reframing, and conversation, I aim to promote agency and resilience. Whether sitting with the vibration of a guitar string or the weight of a single word, I know intentional creative practice teaches us to stay in the room with our own lives.
I’ve taught traditional music in Eastern Kentucky public schools, been a Gilman Scholar at Tbilisi State Conservatoire, designed electronics at Death By Audio, composed at the Bang on a Can Summer Festival, and served as a proofreader and editor, including for Dmitri Tymoczko’s Tonality: An Owner’s Manual.
Community is central to my work. Collaborations with organizations and ensembles such as RVA Baroque, Classical Revolution, the RAIC improvisation collective and kroncong group Rumput, and with artists including Peni Candra Rini, Anna Koch, Kevin Zetina, Vicky Chow and Carrie Frey, reflect my commitment to shared creative inquiry across forms, genres and traditions.
I live in a small house near Maymont Park with one unfriendly cat, one friendly cat, my partner, and our two human children.
