- “The Art of Fugue: Contrapunctus I” now titled “Winterberries I”, Honorable Mention for the 2018 Janet B McCabe Poetry Prize (judged by Ilya Kaminsky: Towards the end of this poem the music is really strong: “so instead of saying / that he had nothing to say he said / nothing at all, and we turned into notes.” This reminded me of Stevens. Any poet who can remind one of Stevens and survive is a real thing.)
