"last year's winterkill" in Roi Fainéant Press 2023
I am the rough fishthat escaped the winterkill.somewhere, at the bottom of the lakethe light reached me, tricklingthrough a hole in the ice.my lateral line tells meto go higher, andI go higher.I am the rough fish;the dandelion of ichthyology.I’ve swum so far now,they find meall of mescattered in devil’s lake.reel me in, all my parts,and put me in a creel.I am the winterkill.I am the sun turned white. I amthe bloated body of a bowfin,my ribs exposed through myskin. I am the deathless coldhaunting
