How your heart is, how is it deep
Rabbit, rabbit! The Deadlands has reopened to poetry submissions. Send us your spectral, your chthonic, your grave-goods, your grief-gifts. We look forward to following you down.
My persistent typo for the name of this magazine is The Deadlads, which feels inevitably as though it will have to generate a ghost poem for A.E. Housman, even though Tom Stoppard sort of sewed that one up years ago. Have some links.
1. In memory of Norma Waterson, her music for a blessing.
2. On double standards of representation: "I also do think that placing the entire onus of trying to anticipate every single bad angle someone somewhere might take when reading the text upon the shoulders of the writer – instead of giving in that there should be also a level of responsibility on the part of the audience not to project whatever biases they might carry onto the text – is the kind of thing that will only end up reducing the range of stories that can be told about marginalized people." I hope she writes her heist story with a cool Latino car thief. On the subject of Jewish vampires, Leigh Ann Hussey's "Blood Libel" (1991) is an oldie but a goodie.
3. I like this music video. It reminds me of the films of Peter Strickland: Qlowski, "Folk Song."

It's so strange to think of all of them singing from the other side of the dark river now. And the music still there, the river itself.
(I have been listening to her, too: it's the best way to remember.)

This.
