Two pieces from "in the office hours of the polar vortex" in The Newer York

I've got a pair of new pieces in The Newer York's Electric Encyclopedia of Experimental Literature. They're both from a collection in progress called "in the office hours of the polar vortex."

Here's one and here's another.

GIF Poems

I've got a few GIF poems up over at Stat®rec. At least I think that they're GIF poems. Maybe they're poem GIFs. GIFfy poems? Just poems?

3:AM

I've got a few new poems based on Lincoln speeches over at 3:AM

Poem Videos / Video Poems

I've got a couple of video poems or poem videos or pomes or a film video up at SCUD.

SCUD is menacing and terrifying and damn good.

Abraham Lincoln

I've got another Abraham Lincoln poem up this week. This one in PROØF Magazine, a magazine from the Prove Gallery in Duluth, MN.

Making It In The Movies

A short deal that I put together using a Lomokino Super 35mm and a poem of mine for the InDigest event the Last Reading on Earth, Ever: a Marathon of Apocalyptic Writing.

Age of Quarrel

I've got a new poem up at the Evergreen Review that shares a title with the Cro-Mags tune "Age of Quarrel."

Court Dogs

I've got a longer poem up over at Tarpaulin Sky called "Court Dogs" that uses Pussy Riot's punk prayer to move between a few different structures.

I love Tarpaulin Sky. They're great.

Today I Will Be a Compensated Spokesperson

I've got a new poem up at Opium today called "Today I Will Be a Compensated Spokesperson." Which, I've discovered, will take you about two minutes to read.

Update: These kind of posts are most useful when I provide a link.

Abraham Lincoln

This is me reading another "Abraham Lincoln" poem at the KGB Bar (where I read with teh awesome MC Hyland, Krystal Languell, and Rob Ostrom). This was published over at I Thought I Was New Here, in a slightly different form, back in June.

Speaking of I Thought I Was New Here, Brad Liening has four poems that just went up over there, and they are all quite excellent.

Selective Shampoo

I've got a couple poems in the new issue of Shampoo. They have little to do with shampoo or cleaning oneself's stink. However, my cat does smell at the moment. So, there's that.

This issue has some other good stuff worth reading too. There are poems from Ron Silliman, Paul Siegell, and a ton of other poets.

Get Some Poemage

I've got a new poem up at Right Hand Pointing. It's called "#15," and it's another poem in the Group Activity series.

Person of the Day: Milly Dowler

[there used to be a poem here...]

I'm going to try and write a poem, dumb or not, each day on a random person. A person of the day. These are unedited and posted right after being written.

Person of the Day: John Quincy Adams

I met him when he was 49 or 9
and he wasn’t yet a father,
but he was working on it. The way
he fought and attempted breeding
was impudent. JQA and I
sitting around in powdered
wigs, muskets, oak
tables, and mead. So yes, thank
you very much, I do get it. I was there.


I'm going to try and write a poem, dumb or not, each day on a random person. A person of the day. These are unedited and posted right after being written. Oh, and I'm going to try to not be mean to the subject in any of them, because that would make this easier.

New Poems at I Thought I Was New Here

I've got two new poems up on Gregory Lawless' I Thought I Was New Here blog. They are called "We’ll know we’ve hit the big time when we’ve got a set of equipment for smut and then another for non-smut" and "Wednesday June 11th, 2010." The first one was started after Brad Liening actually said that to me in an e-mail. We both wrote a poem with that title.

The whole thing makes me so happy I want to do the Batdance:

DLN + "1." = MB8

I was interviewed about my poem "1." from the new issue of Monkeybicycle by J.A. Tyler at the Monkeybicycle Blog.

"Everything Oz"

The new issue of H_ngm_n came out yesterday and I've got a poem in it called "Everything Oz."

at the auditions for the lion king

I've got a new poem up at Sink Review called "At the Auditions For the Lion King."

My InDigest cohorts Brad Liening and Jess Grover have poems in there as well. Both poems melt faces.

Also, Ashleigh has a poem in the Two Weeks anthology. Her poem is awesome, and the whole project is worth taking a look at.

i am a natural wonder

I've got a new poem up at Lily Ladewig and Anne Cecilia Holmes I Am A Natural Wonder blog. The poem is called "I am a Natural Wonder" (as all poems on the blog are).
