These walls, these walls keep closing in

My poem "The Wearing Season" is now online at Through the Gate. It is a small but very fine issue, the rest of the TOC being Bogi Takács and Rose Lemberg. This is the poem I wrote during the dress rehearsals for Tomes of Terror: New Arrivals in October, which surprised me considerably: usually I need solitude. I suppose it is one of the ghost poems, even without any names.

I am looking at three apartments today, in a crazed webwork of buses. Wish me luck and not a lot of frostbite.

Lovely poem and lovely issue!

Good luck with the apartment search. Stay warm, have tea during and after.

Here's to the first apartment you look at being the obvious winner, so you don't have to bother with the other two. Failing that, here's to one of the three being perfect for your needs.

Good luck, bright luck, fair winds, and may good things befall.

Beautifully ghostly poem. And a wonderful issue.

Good luck with the apartment(s)!

Oh this is gorgeous. You just filled my day. I'm constantly amazed at the images you come up with to convey a feeling. Always fresh and striking. You remind me what writing can do!
