KENNING JP GARCIA is an anti-poet and diarist and founding member of St. Rocco’s Poetry Collective. Kenning is neither man nor myth but enjoys a good origin story. So, Brooklyn is where xe began and Albany is where xe hopes not to end although endings do not frighten Kenning. Endings are merely a gateway to upgrades, sequels, and remastered re-releases. In the time between the initial and the impending, Kenning writes chronicles, humor and lyrical narratives, including So This Is Story (Shirt PocketPress), They Say (WEST VINE PRESS) and Playing Dead.
