Disinterment

My poem "Disinterment" appeared in Aries, a literary journal published by Texas Wesleyan University, a while back. Although Aries is not widely distributed, some of the contributors' work in this volume (Vol. 27) have appeared in publications such as Atlantic Monthly, Harvard Review, Poetry, and Prairie Schooner.

In my bio maybe I should have mentioned that not only had I received a free tote bag from the New Yorker for renewing my subscription, but that I had even been granted the professional rate. Needless to say, I was very proud to have my work published alongside such established writers.

"Disinterment" is the first literary work I have ever put on youtube. I took the picture for the "video" at Concordia Cemetery in El Paso, where the outlaw/lawyer John Wesley Hardin, numerous buffalo soldiers, Chinese railroad workers, and many, many others are buried.
