I assume this is the place where you can shamelessly flaunt a success! My poem, “Coffee and Diesel” managed to snag 2nd place in the National Amateur Poetry Competition for the July–December 2024 cycle. I’m as surprised as anybody—seems a man can scribble about caffeine and combustion and still find himself standing on a little podium he didn’t know was there.”
