About
I bang out custom, on-demand poems on vintage typewriters. Also, I'm a giant fox.
Book the Poetry Fox for your wedding reception, corporate or company gathering, festival, school event, private party, store or bar/restaurant, and all your guests get a unique, customized takeaway they’ll never forget—a poem just for them!
I write for all occasions and ages. Give me a word, get a poem!
I also write poem commissions for the special people in your life, for clients and employees, or to enhance your own brand or project. I’m a custom-content whirlwind!

Nina Riggs, visiting the Duke Cancer Center for an oncology appointment, got a poem from me on the center's Spa Day, and blogged very eloquently about it. She turned that post into a passage in her remarkable memoir "The Bright Hour: A Memoir of Living and Dying," which was published shortly before her death in February 2017. See you on the other side, Nina.
Shana Draugelis, founder of The Mom Edit blog, wrote about her sons getting a fox poem at ArtPrize in 2017.
Durham, NC City Council member -- and good friend! -- Charlie Reece asked the fox to a council session to read a poem I wrote about Durham in 2017.
