Liminal Matter
Liminal Matter is a collaboration between Laura Winter (poetry) and Terri Warpinski (photography), and consists of two art book portfolios of broadsides. The pairings in Fences tend to encompass broadly sweeping landscapes, suggesting the futility of political squabbles in relation to the immensity of the natural world. The pairings in Traces tend to focus on the border’s impact on people and the artifacts left behind through the sacrifice of each individual. Juxtaposed against the natural world of scrabble and big sky, the viewer may even consider the pairings as a harbinger of hope that the people will rise up against the politics of their leaders.
A limited number of portfolios are available through Passages Bookshop.

Coming Here To Be Alone
This is a collection of poetry about deserts – the creatures who live there and the rocks, spiny flora and occasional oasis that can be found there. The poetry was written after many adventures in deserts and dry places of the western US. This book features German translations next to the original poetry written in English. The poems were translated because two German translators fell in love with the rich visual elements of each poem. Cover art by Brad Winter.

Now Name Them
I was invited to submit a selection of poems for a chapbook to Bare Bone Books. I chose the poems because of the common theme of everyday living encounters we have with utensils and/or situations. Cover art by Paul Schaap, cover design by Genevieve Forstag.

Sleeping Leaves
I wrote these poems during an adventurous trip to Japan that included a bullet train ride to Kyoto where I met the poet Cid Corman. Ce Rosenow, the publisher, asked for journal excerpts to be included to offer some contextual observations about my journey. There are a limited number of copies available for purchase.

No Gravy Baby
The poems in this chapbook are each dedicated to musicians – jazz and improvisors. A fun collection of sound poems meant to be read aloud with a trumpet or saxophone, poems that use tune titles for their construction and poems written during performances. I enjoy performing these pieces with various groups of musicians where the poem itself becomes its own type of instrument.
