I got a dead ghost inside of me

My poem "Incubation" has been accepted by Not One of Us. It was written with teenybuffalo in mind and features a dead man, dreaming. The world's best zombie oracle still belongs to Lucan. I should get back to translating him.

This seems as good a place as any to mention that you can now purchase copies of Love Is a Hurtin' Thing, which closes with my poem "Sefer Yetzirah."

There is an impressive amount of snow around these days.

And this afternoon's mail brought me the first issue of Moral Relativism Magazine, in which my poem "Abite Laeti, Abite Locupletes" appears between thoughts on Susan Bordo and a reprint of Ambrose Bierce. This is an unusual poem for me; it is nonfantastic, political, and one of the best things I think I wrote all last year. The magazine looks terrific, too.
