Apparently I had enough feelings about love to make an entire set out of them.

Some publication news! 💗

My poem “From His Rib” is officially out in Issue 25 of The Good Life Review!

This poem explores religion, womanhood, marriage, motherhood, and the ways ideas about submission can be passed from one generation of women to the next, and what it can mean to quietly hope your daughter inherits something different.

I’m incredibly excited to see this one out in the world and grateful to The Good Life Review for giving it a home.

One of my favorite lines:

“I named her Eve,
so she would know wanting was never the fall.”
