Jen Acacia Mittelstadt
“Collected” was inspired outside of the organic farm on The Evergreen State College Campus at the prompting of her professor, Bill Ransom, to go outside and write about something. “Aryls on Martin Luther King Jr. Day” was written 16 years after its subject, the black lab, died on the snow in February. “Snapshot of Autumn” was inspired by many long nights spent with McKenzie Jean Homan smoking cigarettes in secret.
