IN PROGRESS
SOFT EVIDENCE: a poetry manuscript in-progress
I’m currently at work on my second full-length poetry collection, a manuscript titled Soft Evidence. At its center, is one unspoken question: How do we prove what we can't quantify? "Soft evidence" is the opposite of hard evidence, leaving room between the lines for our uncertainty and our doubt. This new poetry collection-in-progress includes poems of the paranormal, fairy tale, women's bodies, ghosts, and true crime. These poems grapple with encounters and narratives that compel us to prove their truth, but that, by their nature, require a leap of logic or belief to make their case.

Girl as Vandercook 4 Proof Press
This house has many hearts.
Now clear your minds--it knows what scares you.
On Forensic Files, Husbands Kill Wives & Wives Kill Husbands
They linger in a perpetual dream state.
Mother as Haunting, as Mourning Dove
