My poem, “Muse, Incognito,” originally published in Eclectica, debuts today at Whale Sound. Whale Sound is a neat project that seeks to nudge poetry back towards the vein of oral performance, in which, of course, it had its origins.

My son, Winfield, and I headed to Wisconisn on the evening of June 2nd. The basic plan was to spend Friday and Saturday finding as many herps as possible.
