Jeremy Voigt- Something to Carry Home and Not K*ll

In Something To Carry Home and Not K*ll, poems navigate grief, fatherhood, and fractured family bonds through unflinching observation. From a mother's death to teaching amid gun violence and political unrest, these works seek beauty in brokenness—finding connection through birds, water, and the reciprocal exchange of being alive.

Jeremy Voigt is the author of the book Something to Carry Home and Not K*ll, (forthcoming) from Elixir Press, and two chapbooks: Neither Rising nor Falling (Finishing Line press) and The Invisible Heart of Everything (Floating Bridge Press). He has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize, was featured on The Writer’s Almanac, and was runner up for the 2019 Discovery Poetry Prize. He is a high school English teacher and adjunct professor. He lives in Bellingham, Washington with his wife and children.
