You know what comes right after the dark
My poem "The Avalon Procedure" has been accepted by Not One of Us. It is finally Arthuriana; it owes its title as well as a debt of argument to Bryher and the rest is diaspora and geology. I still have apples on my table from earlier, brighter this autumn, and their scent of sweet orchards and cooling earth. If you want in on the saddle-stapled pages of this enduringly black-and-white 'zine, I can only recommend it.

Yay autumn apples.

Thank you! (I would love that!)
Yay autumn apples.
In fairness I eat them all through the winter, and in the summer, too, but in autumn they are the best.

Today I took a middle schooler's phone because we are a phone-free school and he said "I was just asking ChatGPT--" and I DID NOT say because I am a MODEL of restraint, "Young man, you're prompting with Hitler!"
Many autumnal felicitations on a poem to a good home.

You read that poem! There's so much zeitgeist in that baby! Give it a whirl.

You are a hero of the revolution, but truly, careless chat costs planets.
Many autumnal felicitations on a poem to a good home.
Thank you!

So much zeitgeist.
I just keep coming up with My candle burns at both ends, it will not last the night and I strongly think someone already wrote that and it rhymes loudly. It is full of the zeitgeist, I'll give it that.

Look, I had to accept that Jane Yolen beat everyone else to the zeitgeist in 1996: "History is a yahrzeit candle. / One terrible wind could blow it out."

This is probably way off the mark, but in the short run I am enjoying the title of the poem because it sounds like the title of an Anthony Price novel.

I don't mind that at all.
