fix my car

I’m working on my next poetry book, which will be a full length one.  My first chapbook, Naked, was published in April of 2018 and is available at Main Street Rag Publishing Company, Purple Crow Books in Hillsborough, NC, and The Regulator Bookshop in Durham, NC.

Here are a few lines from “fix my car”, which will appear in my full length poetry book:

I want to fix my car

I try to start

my alternator grinds

I can’t fix my car

my skin

cushions seat springs

so my upholstery doesn’t rip

my memories are a screechy old car door with rusty hinges

they hang on for dear life
