New Writing on Justice



















John Jay College of Criminal Justice has finally begun distribution of their very first literary journal (www.jjay.cuny.edu/jjournal/) and I'm happy to announce that my work is included in this exciting new series! Tuesday is a poem I wrote years back when I taught writing at Rikers Island prison; a short piece introducing the male inmate to the quick, harsh reality of prison intake.

It's always a nice thing for any writer to be given a nod (Thanks again, Jason!)

You can find Tuesday, along with other pieces I've written, in my upcoming poetry book The Dredlocks Tree set for its own distribution this August.
