“Smokenstocks” published at Words Dance!

I wrote a poem about what it’s really like to be a cafeteria cashier and cook at the Grand Canyon.  It’s called “Smokenstocks” and it’s now published at Words Dance!  That’s right, for your reading pleasure, my post-college employment and my English degree hooked up and soon gave birth to a poem about smoking, Birkenstocks, smoking, cigarettes, smoking, and low wage jobs in beautiful places.  This poem is about tobacco smoking.  Some day I may follow up with other poems about…other smoking.

I’m super psyched to be published at Words Dance.  Look for my poem “Texarkana Tap Water,” coming up in May.
