New Poems in Banyan Review

 

Four poems from the manuscript

The Next World

have recently appeared

in

The Banyan Review

Issue 12, Winter 2022

 


You can find the poems here

here.

Here’s the beginning of one of the poems:

 


Car Batteries, Falling Snow, Snakestones

1.

Snow flies in from the south in waves; thick with huge flakes, then

sparse, with flakes so small they float, can’t make it to earth. Cars

 

slice through grey snow on Coburg Road, most heading to work. I

can’t. Someone stole my car battery last night. No damage, though.

 

Were they purposefully careful? But why bother? Maybe this is

the new way we look out for each other…
