Eric Nelson’s most recent poetry collection is The Twins. He teaches creative writing at Georgia Southern University and lives in Statesboro, Georgia, where he keeps five chickens who give him eggs and inspiration for his poems.
The novelty intrigued at first — / A gray hair! Yanked it out. Examined. / Coarser than the brown. Crimpy. Like a pubic hair / That lost its spring, and way.
May 2015In this saved hour I want to praise / The otherworldly feel of it — / As if physics and gravity were a phase / Outgrown and now, at last, what we suspected / Was possible is possible, the future behind us.
April 2013The five-year-old twins who wandered / From their yard were finally found
April 2011Has something we published moved you? Fired you up? Did we miss the mark? We’d love to hear about it.
