M. J. Iuppa-

Death, Not-Yet

Think of shadows
around us still–
night after quiet night–
strung between breaths
that might catch us
all alone.

M.J.Iuppa lives on a small farm near the shores of Lake Ontario.  Her most recent chapbook is As the Crows Flies (Foothills Publishing, 2008) and second full length collection, Within Reach, (Cherry Grove Collections, 2010).  She is Writer-in-Residence and Director of the Visual and Performing Arts Minor program at St. John Fisher College, Rochester, NY.
