"A Drawer full of Drivers' Licenses" is up at The Kenyon Review

Wowsers! I'm honored and thrilled to have my Golden State Killer poem up on The Kenyon Review. You can read it, or listen to me reading it with a cold, OR read why editor Natalie Shapiro picked it!

"...this poem does a masterful job of evoking the veneer of evenness that papers over the moment of panic, pivoting away from the subject of the killings to giggle at passé fashion and outmoded technology, unable, in the moment, to process the terror that has loomed for so long and now makes itself known."

"Finding a Drawer Full of Drivers' Licenses:," by Jennifer L. Knox, appears in the Sept/Oct issue of the Kenyon Review. When I first came across Jennifer L. Knox's "Finding a Drawer Full of Drivers' Licenses:," I had recently sat down with Monica Youn's essay "Petrarch's Hangover: An Argument in Five Sonnets," which takes up the role of disproportion in the sonnet form.
