I heard the grey wolf sing her serenade at night

[reposted from last night, on account of Livejournal being totally borked]

My epic collaboration with Mike Allen and Nicole Kornher-Stace, "The King of Cats, the Queen of Wolves," is now online at Apex Magazine. Interview conducted by Francesca Forrest here, outtakes here. I keep forgetting I actually wrote a sestina for this poem.

I dreamed last night about following a shadowy sort of cult, the kind that draws circles on bare apartment floors and chooses sacrifices from among themselves, but I also dreamed about day planners and waiting at bus stops in nicotine-lit nighttime rain, talking to janitors in off-season university stairwells, so it was clearly one of those lifestyles that is much less romantic in person.

I am so tired. It would be nice if my brain would come back.

Two sestinas! Very nicely done.

Also, excellent musical choice. Have you heard "To Cut is to Cure"?

Well, keep in mind one of them might not be mine . . .

Have you heard "To Cut is to Cure"?

No; I have The Rose Has Teeth in the Mouth of a Beast (2006) and its companion EP For Alan Turing, and Full on Night (2000) with Rachel's, but that's it for Matmos.

They do blend together well.

Then which one is yours?

If you have a Dropbox, I can hook you up with more Matmos. You need more Matmos in your life.

That would be telling.

If you have a Dropbox, I can hook you up with more Matmos. You need more Matmos in your life.

Alas, I have no Dropbox. But I agree with the rest of that statement.

According to Dropbox (dropbox.com) you do have an account.

If so, then it is something I set up years ago and never used; I'm not going to start now. I take CDs, though.
