BTW: The winner of The Poetry Lottery #2 was Gwendolyn Fleischer! Here is her poem...

Before Cell Phones

We stopped at a red phone kiosk

beside a high stone wall

surrounding a fire station

outside of Dublin

 I exited the black rental car

a murder of crows flew down

or maybe it was an unkindness of ravens

hovering just above me

sharp beaks flashing menacingly

sizeable wings beating in the summer air

 

I phoned the B&B for directions

the black birds cawed and kra'acked

wings swooshed just above the kiosk

they stayed with me as I  swiftly got back in the car

where my new husband was

safe inside for the birds' sorcery

The Ring Held for Me to Jump Through Is Flaming 

 

I carry the trouble I understand. 

I’m smoking in this morning’s bird song. 

 

I’m smoking in this morning’s bird song-- 

an exhausted Kama Sutra purveyor. 

 

I’m an exhausted Kama Sutra purveyor. 

Classification is everywhere. 

 

Classification seeks order everywhere. 

Inclinations aren’t easy to wrangle. 

 

Inclinations are tempting not to wrangle. 

I was naïve about connectivity.  

 

So naïve about connectivity. 

We lacked a conversational touch. 

 

We lacked a conversational touch. 

He put a firecracker in my gift. 

 

He lit the firecracker in my gift. 

I carry the trouble I understand.

New Chapbook!

The latest publication from Four Feathers Press is a recipe for attempting to survive in this universe: be yourself. Why? Because we come from language, we are professors who can only warn each other of the assassination of life. "The human race will eventually become extinct / Because some of us never learned / To play nice." In such a "hamster wheel galaxy", 2020 is proof we need to volunteer to answer our own questions. So, duck! "Our history lessons are written in blood / On parchments of human flesh." Lessons..."Today I met a man who only spoke in stone." Strangeweather is a poet's poet who allows "you can peek at the kaleidoscope clockwork of the universe within me." -- Don Kingfisher Campbell, editor of Four Feathers Press

“A book that reflects as much on what it is to 𝘉𝘌 now as what it was to 𝘉𝘌 then. A book that realizes we live in tangled loops of indeterminable confusion. That the mistakes of the past are simply the mistakes of the future we are yet to make again. A book that layers the real under the absurd, and layers the absurdity of what is real on top to make a cacophony of sounds that leaves you questioning if you may have just found someone who 𝘙𝘌𝘈𝘓𝘓𝘠 𝘒𝘕𝘖𝘞𝘚 𝘞𝘏𝘈𝘛'𝘚 𝘎𝘖𝘐𝘕𝘎 𝘖𝘕! Strangeweather expresses within these pages what it is to doubt yourself, those around you and those who govern. But through all that confusion is a very, very clear understanding of ducks. 𝘗𝘰𝘦𝘮𝘴 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘬𝘢-𝘋𝘰𝘵 𝘈𝘱𝘰𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘺𝘱𝘴𝘦 is a book well worth reading several times over.” –Steve Cawte, editor of 𝘐𝘮𝘱𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘔𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘦

𝘗𝘰𝘦𝘮𝘴 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘬𝘢-𝘋𝘰𝘵 𝘈𝘱𝘰𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘺𝘱𝘴𝘦, available almost everywhere books are sold, but it would be best if you pick up your copy here: https://shop.aer.io/.../Poems_from.../9780578998497-11535

Want to publish a chapbook?
