Bio Sketch
Larry
Kimmel is a US poet. He holds degrees from Oberlin Conservatory and
Pittsburgh University, and has worked at everything from steel mills to
libraries. Recent books are this hunger, tissue-thin, and shards and dust. He lives with his wife in the hills of Western Massachusetts.
Larry's well-crafted haiku illustrates a sense of place (in this case, public space shown in L2), of time past (indicated in L1) and present (implied in the thematic context of the poem)
