His black and white faces go running by
Two poems of mine are now online, a few minutes early for June: "Madonna of the Cave" at Lone Star Stories and "Lamellae (Hipponion and Cambridge)" at Ideomancer. The former was written on a prompt from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
handful_ofdust, the latter more or less as its note says. Otherwise I would draw your particular attention to Leah Bobet's "The Parable of the Shower" and Jacqueline West's "Arsinoë's Sister," also Marcie Lynn Tentchoff's "Grace in the Desert" and Larry Hammer's "At Death's Door," but both tables of contents are rather awesome. The world should be full of good art. It's the proper order of things.

Oh I **love** Larry's poem. I love sestinas. And that story by Leah Bobet was just perfect--really, really wonderful. The other poems you linked to were beautiful as well, but Larry's poem and Leah's story in particular I loved. (I want to go back and look at Ideomancer not just from your links but from its own presentation--I was impressed by how both Larry's poem and Marcie's had a desert theme, and yours too had a parched promise :-)

Thank you! That one is important to me, so I am especially glad.

I didn't notice it was a sestina until I got to the last stanza . . .

It's a good magazine. You should send them stuff.

Oh excellent. That means I did it at least somewhat right.

I need to make it a point to read your work before I write my own. You remind me how much is out there and how alive everything, animate or inanimate, is, and always with a longing in the heart.

There's nothing wrong with your voice, either, I should point out.

Getting to read other contributors' work is definitely a plus of being published anywhere . . .
