NEW in Menacing Hedge, Summer 2019 - Four of My Poems!

"And so from the ground up and down, you elongate
into different circle shapes. You expand and grow
your own fairy tale pie filled with maggots
that will choke to death or drown in between
the red filling unless they learn to fly."

I'm delighted to have four new poems in the new Summer 2019 issue of Menacing Hedge!

The NEW June flock of Thirteen Myna Birds has arrived!

hibiscus #11 by MISH"I am the rusty fence wrapped around the graveyard - all week the rainsoaked pavements have been white with second-hand sunshine - treading your breath - I watch you fly off without me - I was supposed to be your island not the sea you drown in - Pain receded to an ache, then to nothing worth noticing - My heart is full of dust - The wet was water, was pus, was blood, was stink - I should never have told her that I wrote any poetry."
The new June flock of Thirteen Myna Birds has arrived, offering art by MISH and poetry by Ann Kestner, DS Maolalai, Michael A. Griffith, and Brittany Sabatino!All HERE - https://13myna.blogspot.com/
