Inner Moonlight: Matthew W. Baker

Inner Moonlight is the monthly poetry reading series for the Wild Detectives in Dallas. We make poetry magic on the second Wednesday of every month. We have returned to the Wild Detectives in person, but fret not, podcast fans! We will be releasing recordings of the live show every month for y'all. On 1/12/22, we featured poet Matthew W. Baker. Matthew W. Baker currently lives in Dallas where he is pursuing a PhD in Literature from the University of Texas at Dallas. He received his MFA from the University of Nevada, Reno. He is the author of Undoing the Hide’s Taut Musculature (2019), and other work has appeared in The Atlanta Review, The Briar Cliff Review, The Baltimore Review, The Summerset Review, Booth Journal, and Sundog Lit, among others.
