“Incidental to the evidence 

   That meaning proves

Like a dough,

That thoughts do reach out

             From the page

And claim us, knead

             Us into form, rise

 – An experience of the word

So bodily, eyes 

             In the meeting 

Of print and finger,

             Each word

A journey your hand

Must travel, send postage…”

Hello dear friends. I am thrilled to announce that after months of waiting, my next book titled “Bright, Inhabited Lives” is now out in the world! Find it on Amazon, or on the publisher’s website here. 

As I encountered these poems again on the physical page, I couldn’t help but think again of these lines above, which you’ll find tucked within the pages of this book. I hope these words take you on your own journey into deeper layers of meaning, possibility, and our rich human capacity for life. 

If you do pick up a copy this week (which I hope you do), it would make my year to see some reviews or comments come in, and hear how these words continue to live on in the world!

Together in the mystery,

Jenna
