409: a little something


My poem "Traver K Sutton Will Write Letters to His Wife" is in the current issue of Conte.

It's nice, but sad timing: I was just informed yesterday my grandmother's kidney functions have dropped, which means she's officially in end-stage kidney failure and will begin dialysis. The official functioning went from 18% to 9%. This is the same grandmother, the wife, of course, of the poem, who broke her hip just after my birthday, and who I love a great big ol' deal.

More poems from this series, and other poems, are in the works for publication; I'll let you know when that will be.

Oh Molly, I'm so sorry to hear about your grandmother! Sending comforting wishes your way...

Glad this incredible poem has found a home, and confident that more will follow it shortly. XO.
