Tiny snowflakes
Light as the air
Fall through the gloom
Scratching and biting
Scaring birds off their branches
Surrounding trees and
Building on brick and metal and shingle and grass
Dancing with the slightest breeze
Inspired by silent music
Energized by lack of sunlight
Impervious to reason
Ready to cover the globe with tiny specks of white that
Together
Are able to hide
Everything

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.
