Megan Hallinan has been wandering since she was a teenager but is a New Englander at heart. She has lived in France, Ireland, and Senegal, and is somehow an officer in the United States Navy. She has a bachelor’s degree from Trinity College Dublin and a master’s degree in Nonfiction Writing from Johns Hopkins University. She currently lives in London, but you can always visit her website.
I’d been thinking about leaving. I’d been thinking how there’s something about out here. Before long it’s a new January and you’re hungover with a heartache for a man you won’t see for several years until he pops up on that very popular, critically-acclaimed sitcom with that actress you learned to like, then hate, then feign indifference abou
The leak in your breathing/ tube makes a cartoon squeak./ It takes two nurses, silent/ as nuns, to place you/ in my arms...
If I have already/ gone insane/ but I want to get/ crazier yet,/ what’s my move?/ Go outsane?
