Death is just another one
Of those things
Like air and pop music
That cannot be avoided
Sleep doesn’t replicate death
Any more than it answers the question:
Why am I so tired?
When I was just a boy
Answers weren’t just available
They also made perfect sense
And love was the easiest one of them all
Because it answered everything
Even death

Named one of New York's Best Emerging Poets 2019, my poetry chapbook The New Normal was published by Analog Submission Press. My novel The Zoo was published by Cacoethes Publishing House. Other poems and short stories have appeared in Subterranean Blue Poetry, The Journal of Microfiction, and Sick Lit Magazine, among others. Other works include a staged reading of my play Digging Up John Barrymore, performed by Dreamcatcher Entertainment, and five albums of original music recorded with my band Late Model Humans.
