My Blood Has Been To The Moon

My Blood Has Been To The Moon
by pat a physics
Trading places with the lonely zoologist, I seldom perform card tricks like back on earth. The red metal banisters lead the way toward mild gravity. Sinking my body into the controlled inner-construct, my mind thinks about the blood. It’s good blood. My […]

Kateruri
poem by george anderson, photo by kate marie
1
on the staircase wall is a framed black and
white photograph of your great grandmother
she is wrapped in a hand woven blanket
clutching a long clay pipe with worn hands-
she stares intensely at the photographer,
the traditional moko marked on her chin
2
before sleep time I read you again your
favourite Maori legend […]

Happy Thanksgiving

A Thanksgiving Prayer
by William S. Burroughs
Thanks for the wild turkey and the passenger pigeons, destined to be shit out through wholesome American guts.
Thanks for a continent to despoil and poison.
Thanks for Indians to provide a modicum of challenge and danger.
Thanks for vast herds of bison to kill and skin leaving the carcasses to rot.
Thanks for […]

america
by Klipschutz
I want all the women
all the money
all the fun
I want every rainbow
all the marbles
and a personalized introduction to God
I want a death list
transparent skin
and a cat with no fur
I want everything
I have nothing
I will negotiate

THE GIRL IN THE WHITE MERCEDES
By Joseph Goosey
Facing extinction of the worst
nature
some dinosaurs in the back yard
said
‘No mas’.
I am not up, not awake
til the
sound of a once great metropolis
begging at the hands
of a
wrecking ball
is heard outside my
window
some things do not
pan out
the way the construction of
Greece
did
and this I understand
but what gets to me is the
girl

We hardly ever fought
By El Guero
We hardly ever fought
or so I remember
and I know
I only made you cry once
on the phone
when you said you didn’t know
what you believed
and I told you I was a Buddhist
some of the time
but most of the time
nothing.
The honest answer
but you cried and hung up
and I heard
despair in your voice
and didn’t […]
