Christina Rothenbeck writes poems. She hopes they're good ones.
She believes in: the life of the mind, the basic goodness of most people, duct tape, never throwing away something you might need someday, glitter, the beauty and urgent necessity of language, having as many adventures as possible, basic human rights and necessities for every single person on this planet, the power of tea to make everything better, candles, christmas lights, being a smartass, making wishes, dancing my ass off, the ability of a cigarette and a pool cue to make anyone look like a badass, DIY, getting drunk and telling stories, punk rock, lullabies, platform shoes, pez dispensers...
publication history: The Scarab Literary Magazine, The Normal Review, and The Paterson Literary Review.
awards: Honorable Mention, Allen Ginsberg Poetry Awards 2004; Montclair State University Poetry Prize 2006.
