NEW! My Poem “Residual Fitting Room Inside Which Nothing Fits” has managed to fit its way into MasticadoresUsa!

"You feel like you don’t fit in anywhere
and sometimes that’s hard to handle
even though you don’t particularly care

about fitting in. You care about being yourself,
but what if yourself mostly only exists inside
your own mind’s mirror?"

"This body makes me increasingly uncomfortable.

The escalating scale.

The fat with a watered down cavern inside.

The loosening tissue with fish gills drying out.

The hagfish orifices turning into fossils.

I can handle my whitening hair, but

soon I won’t be able to swim very far

away from deterioration."

A NEW publication of an OLD poem of mine in Sein und Werden's Of Human Bondage Issue

I've been having more trouble than usual lately with concentrating and focusing my energy the way I usually try to do, so am sharing this a little late, but am finally still sharing it.

The NEW issue of Sein und Werden includes an OLD poem of mine called "FOOTAGE".

My poetry style has changed to certain extents over the years.

I think I used to be more language-based and now I'm more emotions/thoughts/feelings based. Plus of course some of my emotions/thoughts/feelings have changed over the years too. I think most if not all of my styles can be mental, visual, and horrific in one way or another.
