He has published three collections of shorter poems, A Poverty of Words (Prolific Press, 2015), Landscape with Mutant (Smokestack Books, UK, 2018), and The Beautiful Losses (Better Than Starbucks Books, 2023). And he has many other poems in print and online journals, including Mudlark in ’07, ’16, ’20, ’22, and ’23.
