I was going to write a think piece
but then I remembered people don't argue with poems
think piece
jessica kantrowitz
i was going to write a think piece
about whether i’m an evangelical
but instead i wrote a story
about the sparrows that gather
in the winterberry bush
next to where i park
and sing one word—“together”
through the scarcity of winter
that sweet clear chirp
their only doctrine

From open things.
And this is the time of year that I start reminding you that my books make great holiday gifts!
My November and December book sales are an important part of balancing my yearly budget, so I really appreciate purchases. And of course it means so much to me for my words to meet a new reader in your family and friends.
Much love,
Jessica
