It is April 2023, National Poetry Month. I am recording myself reading one of my published/curated pieces of poetry each day for 30 days.

Reading # 21 of 30

This poem is titled Anxious Prayer. This is another personal favorite poem of mine about our culture of hustle, about how we can be in the moment, but even that moment is fleeting. This poem is available to read online at The Banyan Review.
