You know what comes right after the dark

[sovay]

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.

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."
