[publications] New Orleans Review, “Roadside Attraction”

Today my poem “Roadside Attraction” was published on the New Orleans Review site. It’s on the site’s main page, and also has its own little link here.

My thanks to the editors there who saw fit to give this poem and “The Push Pull” some exposure to the NOR’s readers.

The poem is based on an experience driving home from Kure Beach near Wilmington, NC in the twilight hour, as the carny atmosphere is just starting to light up on the main drag between the beach and the city.

    “But somewhere up there near the top/you and I are suspended” – a wonderful line that works on so many levels (bad pun, I know, but the words are true).
