Three poems at Rigorous

The good folks at Rigorous have seen fit to publish three more of my poems, all ekphrastic in nature:

1. “essay for history B”

   [inspired by thanks Langston Hughes’ “Theme for English B”]

2. “an open letter to an american institution”

   [inspired by Ted Kooser’s “Fort Robinson”]

   and

3. [Say the blues were apocalyptic— Black]

   [a sonnet inspired by James Cone’s The Cross and the Lynching Tree]
