Will we fight them on the beaches for the bleaching of the reef?

My poem "Amitruq Nekyia" is now online at Strange Horizons. It was written this summer following a friend's disappointing experience with polar exploration fiction, though I suspect it didn't hurt that there was a heat dome on at the time. The recent identification of James Fitzjames just makes it feel topical.

Not only timely but beautiful.

sun dogs at the heel of their ever-shifting north?

...

calving to myth and memory—

...

that liquid lesson they met hard as a mirror
between aurora and extremity


Now I have "Lord Franklin" running in my head.

Maybe once we've finished trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored?

god I love the language of this

kelp-clappered watches of brash ice ... frost fumbling grip ... soft lead oracles ... the secrets we stopper within our own mouths ... between aurora and extremity

Those secrets in our mouths ... so sensual.

Also, I bet myself that brash ice was a thing and not an adjective-noun pair, and the internet tells me I won that bet. Nice.
