Unpublished Poem

 Bright, clear, vivid color: (the ropy rivers of blood
had a purplish tinge, and iridescent blow-flies, in an
orgy of feasting, sparkled like many-faceted jewels).

Stereophonic sound from every side: (the screams, the shrieks,the moans and groans, the gurgles and burbles
faithfully reproduced in a symphony of death).
Mankind devoured by its own marvelous mechanisms turned cannibal.

Waking, return to morning, is rebirth from jaws of gigantic staplers,
and as I descend from my human hive,
snugly clutched in oily-warm embrace of gently purring elevator,
back in my room:
the window shade snickers, the doorknob chuckles,
and the clock laughs so hard it falls off of the shelf.

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.

Next Arrivals by Robin Ouzman Hislop

Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
