Black Spring Online. I bleeve I wrote a bit about this mag (print version) last summer. hte lineup:
Stephen Ellis (featured poet)
kari edwards
Jim McCrary
Steve Tills
Brent Bechtel.
Catherine Daly
Chris Murray
Layne Rusell
a good selection of writers. I want to particularly note Stephen Ellis's work. he's a friend, but I don't hear much from him lately. check out the poem "Hymn". this came to me as a printed postcard sometime ago. it shows the Ellis Method. I'm sure there's a Greek term for the rhetorical device that begins the poem; I love the effect. a looping and/or spiralling. I think of his work as inhabiting sentences tho if you could parse what he's done here, god love you. it's a tense running machine that he makes. oh, Chris Murray uses the word fricative in the poem "Baker's Dozen @ Lovin",confirming my sense that it is a dirty word: "in personal fricative".
