Happy to have a few new things online:
- Clarion published a short little poem I’ve always liked about splinters.
- Stoneboat published a longer but still wood-themed poem about picnic tables (scroll toward the bottom of the page).
- And I’m grateful for a review of But Our Princess up at Alternating Current, where Eric Shonkwiler says:
While it’s impressive to have this collection structured as it is around video games, its greatest victory, its highest score, lies in Best’s ability to make the reader positioned as the player, the poems the games, and to convey still the fullness of life in that 2D format.
