Ghost(ed) Woman & the Electric Purple Pants is about the strange distortion of time during Covid and the time period after. The liberal arts college where I had taught for ten years closed its doors for good in 2020. In the months and years after, I felt stuck and frozen in time. These poems are about feelings of loneliness and uncertainty in the aftermath of job loss or other changes during the pandemic. They are also about finding refuge in nature, dreaming, creativity, and the magic of electric purple pants.
