I’m grateful to Literary Matters for publishing my sonnet sequence, “An Odyssey Triptych.” Many thanks to Emily Grace, Cameron Clark, and the rest of the team at @LM_ALSCW! I’ve attached the first poem in the sequence. The rest are available in the new issue, along with a host of wonderful poems, translations, and essays. literarymatters.org/18-2-an-…
