Sneak peek!

Read "Love Poem with Whip-its and HGTV" from the forthcoming chapbook collaboration LOW BUDGET MOVIE (June '21).

LOW BUDGET MOVIE weaves together the voices of two contemporary poets into a singular persona who sings about vintage guitars, movie props, Dunkin' Donuts, misogyny, the male gaze, low budget movies, and the unexpected glitter caught in the cracks of it all.
