First One Out

If you can stand the times, or cannot do so and need some help doing so, I hope these latest items will make a contribution.

A new online magazine, Breaking Ground has just published my essay, "Verse Lines When the Streets Are on Fire." Those of you who know Lewis's classic essay, "Learning During Wartime" will find my response to it inter alia interesting. Click the icon at the right (I have included not a link, but a pdf., because of some insolvable technical problems with my browser; the essay is available online).

The new issue of National Review publishes my poem, "First Light," the third of three poems in a sequence, the others having appeared in Forma and North American Anglican​. Click the NR to read.

Finally, registration is still open for my July 1st inaugural reading as Poet-in-Residence of the Benedict XVI Institute for Sacred Music and Divine Liturgy. Click below to register.
