The Bird Hoverer By Aaron Belz
PoetryJust what American poetry needs: lots of fresh poems that are weirdly conventional one minute, satisfyingly strange the next.

The Blooming Void by Peter C. Fernbach
PoetryIn The Blooming Void he enacts this. From a “sea of maroon”; from the “sludge” of a polluted world; from the genesis of a “Fruit Fly in Pile of Dirty Laundry”: from these and more emerges “a contrivance of mind” that may result in “A[n] [imperfect] human attempt/At control and understanding,” but, [imperfect] or not, what else have we? —Dr. David Landrey$16.00 -

The Color Symphonies by Wade Stevenson
PoetryThis is a visionary work. It’s a torrent, a whirlwind, a symphony of colors. It’s a blazing apocalypse of rainbows, a dazzling setting sun of the material world.

The Demotion of Pluto by Deborah Meadows
Drama, PoetryIn Deborah Meadows’ The Demotion of Pluto runs of poetry bleed into plays. The title play recasts Sophocles’ Philoctetes; Obstacle Plays riffs on Michael Fried’s Art and Objecthood that considers minimalist sculpture as both theatrical and an obstacle; and Nothing to Do works intensive differences between brilliant and crumbling minds situated in the aftermath of street struggle.$16.00 -
