Appalachian Silence among the Dark Selves – Sam Rasnake

I posted these poems on Christmas Eve at Necessary Fiction because they felt right, not in a religious sense, but in the feel and tone of solemnity that I get from Sam Rasnake’s poetry, particularly this Appalachian suite. Be sure to check out the youtube links at the bottom of the page. The musical choices compliment the poems so perfectly:

Necessary Fiction.

There’s more to come in my last days as writer-in-residence at NF. I have loved this opportunity to share such brilliant writing. I’m working on something to post, of my own, on New Year’s eve along with some great, wild photographs. Stay tuned!
