Tahoma Literary Review (2019)
"self-evident" by Matthew E. Henry, or MEH, caught my attention with its multiple and powerful layers. Told as an adult memory, it enters the moment when a child is asked to believe their own history isn't real but to focus instead on a cleaner, more inspiring narrative. For me, Henry's poem tackles rock-hard truths with personal experience and simple questions, and in so doing reexamines what we teach our children.

A creative nonfiction meets historical fiction poem (I know what that said) has been published in the latest edition of Tahoma Literary Review.
