No hand to scribe the sinking sickness I have seen

My poem "Plague-Bearer" is now online at Lone Star Stories. Its inspirations were more than one nightmare I had in September and a film I have never seen; it is not dedicated to anyone, which may be just as well.

Ironically, I still have the Cold of the Damned. At least it doesn't involve hemorrhaging. I'm going to bed.

So bad I threw my pillow away

And my poem "If Fallen Angels Dream of Flight" is now online at Ideomancer. Like "The Night Boat," it's sort of a recursive collaboration: in this case, drawn from a dream of lesser_celery's after reading "Another Coming." It's one of my shortest poems and one of my favorites. Happy first month of winter, everyone.
