Nettie Farris,
Communion (2013)

These poems tell the love story of s., a shy everyman who excels at tic-tac-toe and loves small, moist dumplings and n., a right brained everywoman who reads Wittgenstein and Anais Nin and prefers large dumplings. Somehow they make it work. In these big-hearted, clear-eyed, short-lined gasps, Nettie Farris grasps that the key to dilly-dallying is to sigh into little poems, to amuse oneself with a pink balloon from time to time, and to pursue the Rosetta Stone to someone else’s heart.
.                                                                     –Tom C. Hunley

Nettie Farris teaches writing as an adjunct instructor, roams the grounds of Mount Saint Francis Nature Sanctuary with her dog, and hikes the Millennium Trail at Bernheim Forest. Her work has appeared in the anthologies The Dark Woods I Cross: An Anthology of Contemporary Louisville Women Poets and Bigger Than They Appear: Anthology of Very Short Poems. She lives in Floyds Knobs, Indiana with her husband and three sons.
