If I see a vision coming, it will be the intersection of place with my body. Topeka, my past, my new freedom, the coverups, the realities.

Then Again
I look at the poems together--six pages--like a sequential poem.
Maybe I will place in Queer Creatures after all?
Work on the Queer Places through Halloween?
Set to submit on October 31?
Then again, sending these poems out in groups of five might be satisfying.
I think I will do that.

I Stopped to Know Where to Go
I have finished with the first long poem borrowing from The Shrubberies until "Adam". This created 32 poems for me--which will be Inside the Shrubberies.
I am also developing Queer Spaces of Topeka--five or six poems, for Queer Creatures of Kansas.
I am pretty happy with these two chapbooks which I will be sending out soon.
As I am discovering my own queerness, as a poet in Topeka I am returning to Ronald Johnson--both in words and location. He worked in Ward-Meade Park here until his death where he wrote The Shrubberies. I wanted to continue “the work that needs done” for both poetry and LGBTQ+ equality. With book in hand, I wrote these poems at Ward-Meade Park and inside the Park of my mind when I couldn’t be there. This is a journey through October, through queer spaces, through finding the mystical in garden and mythos.

Inside the Shrubberies
I am finding that three six-line stanzas a day is a good limit to set, as I am densely writing out of my autobiography with Ronald Johnson approaches: garden, duality-contradictory, mythos, archaic wording, and riffing from text.
I am now on "a frieze of dogwood" noticing how many recurring flowers and words Johnson used, like "iris," or "knives" and "swords" with "green."
