Recently, my hands began to open. They knew before I that there is much to release and much to accept. In between, in the emptiness, is God's grace. These poems make up the texts that are the text of the lives that have brought me to where I am. I have held these poems tightly in vain preparation for better poems. Now, I open my hand.

Previously, he edited Ihe Letters of Roy Bedichek and New Growth: Contemporary Short Stories by Texas Writers.
