Between Two Rivers

Hi folks—just a quick note to say that one of my poems has made it past these confines and onto another set of pages! In short, I’ve just had my first poem published, and I’m so excited to share this news. You can find “The Gardener,” part IX of my “Spring” series from several months ago, in the newly released collection Record of Dissent: Poems of Protest in an Authoritarian Age, by clicking below:

You don’t need me to tell you how timely this anthology is, nor do you need a reminder about the importance of practicing poetry—or any imaginative craft—in precarious times like ours. But I do want to give a heartfelt word of thanks to Nick Allison of the wonderful The Truth About Tigers for including my work and spreading it to a wider audience.

With thanks for reading—

Chris
