The newest issue of the young journal, Pensive: A Global Journal of Spirituality and the Arts is now published. It can be read online, or downloaded as a pdf for free. My own poem, inspired by Wallace Stevens koanic classic, “Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird,” can be found on pages 42-43. I am thrilled to have my work, especially this poem, included in this journal.

Pensive, published twice a year by Center for Spirituality, Dialogue, and Service (CSDS) at Northeastern University in Boston, is currently accepting submissions for its fifth issue. The deadline is May 15, 2022.
