Now available! Jennifer Moxley's The Midnight Work:
"In a time where many of us seem hypnotized by apocalyptic visions, Moxley celebrates everyday life, even in extraordinary circumstances. This is now unusual enough, I think, to be called brave."―Rae Armantrout

I feel a foot at 3 a.m., nudging me to get out of the way. She says, I’m going out to the crab apple tree to stand among the apples and see what I can see.

When a flood recedes,
the ground looks unfamiliar.
Everything is out of place
and all the witnesses can say is
this is where the water was.

Just reread Ronald Johnson’s amazing The Book of the Green Man (a lovely British reprint from @uniformbooks.bsky.social ), reaffirming that he is one of my favorite poets and rekindling my interest in doing a deep dive into the connections between his poetry and his cookbooks. 1/2

Forthcoming October: Jennifer Moxley’s The Midnight Work is a meditation on the fragility of memory and love in the increasingly mediated post-Covid world of polarized politics and climate change. It addresses old friends, living and dead, in a series of epistles among more condensed lyric poems.
