I’m so pleased to have a poem in the current issue of Copper Nickel, one of my all-time favorite journals. “Self-Portrait with Cable News, Graffiti, Weather” is another piece from my manuscript-in-progress, Wild Kingdom. It is also a product of my recent immersion in all things Larry Levis, who died in 1996 but whose influence continues to be felt in contemporary American poetry. Here’s a link to the trailer of A Late Style of Fire, a documentary about Larry Levis which was released this past year.
