I would like to take a minute to thank my past self
for all the hard work he put in to getting me where I am today.
I don’t know if I could do such work now
but I’m glad I did it when I was able.
Devotion, especially, is a trait young people are not known for,
and it has served me well.
What I devoted myself to has also validated my faith.
And I thank her too.

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.
