When I was a teenager, I told my mother I was determined to publish one of my poems in the New Yorker. It was the only magazine I knew at the time that published "real" poems. So much has happened. This week, a poem about my mother is in the New Yorker. newyorker.com/magazine/2020/…
“A Stranger”

“A Stranger”

“I wonder if my dead mother still thinks of me.”
