I passed a nice milestone yesterday with the publication of my poem “Confession” by Horror Sleaze Trash. I’ve now seen my writing and photography appear in 70 ongoing periodicals (in addition to the anthologies and other standalone publications).

It’s the magazine named for me and my peer group — how could I NOT submit a poem?
Seriously, though, I am quite grateful to Editor in Chief Arthur Graham for publishing “Confession” in this superb and subversive art/lit zine “that will always be for the misfits.”
You can find the poem right here:
I don’t want to get too Frank with you …
Standing by the side of the road, and a raven leaves its perch on the power lines to overfly me.
If you are a fan of “28 Days Later” (2002), then you know that this is a setup for a BAD situation.

My first I Ching reading. :-)
“Above, fire, below, the lake.
“The image of opposition this amid all fellowship,
“The superior retains his kind.”
“The Empress” from “Basel’s Dance of Death” by Matthäus Merian, 17th Century
Throwback Thursday: the Cover to “Marvel Comics Presents” #85, Sam Kieth, 1991
This is a truly iconic 1990’s comic cover by the inimitable Sam Kieth; the image takes me right back to when I returned to comic book fandom in the first half of the decade. Kieth passed away on March 15th.
