Plant Life was featured in the Fall 2018 issue of Tulane Review along with my poem

IS THERE ONE CHANCE FOR THIS LEADEN VERSE

Among the shadows of these pillars
I draw each capitol’s ruined shape
a plump heart donned w/ a crown
the curve of your cheek
the gesture in your eyes

The sun hides our shadows
I lift your forefingers
to my forehead
I kiss
your wrist

I gesture and follow
under trees

I pull out a needle
and a spool of thread
to sew the straps across your slippers
while you sleep
