“Jimmy”

Thanks to Yalobusha Review for including my short, elegiac essay “Jimmy” in Issue 39. This piece has never been sure if it’s a prose poem or lyric essay–thus embodying that verdant, literary edge I so love.


Yalobusha Review “is a journal of new writing, founded in 1995 and operated by the graduate writing program at the University of Mississippi. We seek to showcase work that alters or subverts mainstream forms of expression–work that is, in a broad sense, experimental, though that can take many forms. We believe the reading experience should be a kinetic one, and to that end, we favor art that has its own source of energy, drawn from tonal individuality, linguistic texture, and above all, a sense of exploration.”
