Falling: Scheduled Readings

Signed copies of Currents (2022) and Falling (2025) available for purchase at all readings.

Review

“Out of the dark hole of grief comes a startling, at times surreal, lyricism in this poetic narrative which fall as burning meteors, dark matters making light, to suddenly ascend into the love fall. The lesson of unbounded heart love attachment to parents unexpectedly parting while knowing life is a death sentence.”

-Karl Kempton, Sandskrit of Oceano Dunes; Australia, 2021; Selected Lexical & Visual Mathematical Poems 1976 – 2022, 2022; Portraiture: Oceano Dunes to Tide Line, Australia, 2023; and chapbook, Moon Shadows, India, 2024.
