Six of my poems are included in the latest Magnolia Review available for free download HERE. The theme of the issue was ” A Day That Changed Me.”

• “On the Edge of 1969” – on a day shortly after Woodstock when I realized I would never be cool
• “Beneath the Six-Sided Farmhouse” – on visiting my grandparents and meeting death in their basement
• “April 22, 1994—For Linda” – on the day my wife and I began our life together
• “The Context of February” – on the day I realized my first marriage was truly over
• “October 25, 2001, at 6:45 p.m.” – on the day my father died
• “Today (September 11, 2001)” – and this one is obvious

My thanks to Editor Suzanna Anderson for continuing to support my work and for allowing me the honor of selecting this year’s Ink Award winner.
