I have a piece titled “Aspirin” up at Words Dance today, which is completely thrilling because it’s a gorgeous site and I love reading it. The artwork accompanying my piece, painted by Clare Elsaesser, is brilliant. Please check it out!
Issue 13 of scissors & spackle was released today, along with a poem of mine! This was my first official unsolicited poetry acceptance (the ones published a few weeks ago were actually accepted later), so it’s pretty exciting.
Scissors & spackle is a gorgeous, full-size print journal, and I encourage you to buy a copy. My poem is also featured on the website, though, which can be found here.
I’ll be reading my poem “On Learning the Jorōgumo has a Boyfriend While I Do Not” tonight at Most Wanted Fine Art in Pittsburgh, PA for the FREE MONSTER POEMS ABOUT MONSTERS release party. Here’s an excerpt:
In Japan, if you have a yen for it, you can sniff
The secretions of a young girl cracked fresh from a plastic
Egg birthed by a burusera vending machine.This is where the spider woman takes a lover.
Come out and see me!
I’m pleased to announce that I have two pieces up at Melancholy Hyperbole today: Unabashed and Bleach: An Extrapolation.
