Even When You Wilt
The Chronogram published a poem of mine this month. Scroll down, it's not the first one. First poem I've ever had published. It has inspired me to write even more poetry, some of which I'll be sharing here.

What the Tide Brings - buy my new poetry book here
What the Tide Brings marks the debut of a new voice in poetry. Kim Barke's poems find space along the paths of nature, science, love, and death. Fireflies, buzzing phones, lab rats, and blue herons share the page with the electrical energy felt between two bodies in love. Between losing sleep over sump pumps and rock climbing in Joshua Tree, she captures the everyday sublime: sometimes ragged, often muffled, always thoughtful.
