Stacy Kidd


Oklahoma in Winter


is no place to live

not tonight.



We carry, we name our own.


Pebble

underfoot
bothers

             cold, cold water


and we roll our pants up,


carry the pebble home.


Stacy Kidd’s poems have appeared in Boston Review, Columbia, Eleven Eleven, WITNESS, and The Iowa Review, among others. Her chapbooks About Birds and A man in a boat in the summer were released this fall from dancing girl press and Beard of Bees.
