+doc.8

        

    My heart has been detachable

    for years.

    You can find it in a clam

    in a well, in the Danish mountains.

    Purple flowers grow over stones,

    careless and expansive. 

        — Mahaila Smith, from "The Bugs Have Gone Away"

 

 

I've been trying to keep away from the news. The winter's dark and cold, and I don't need the rest of the world pressing against my chest as well. I haven't been wholly successful. Maybe you haven't too. I've found that poetry helps - I'm working my way through the collected Basil Bunting, the latest issue of Some from Rob Manery, and there's a whole stack of books I ordered from Kirby a week or two back.

 

I'm happy to say that the latest +doc is now available, and I'm starting to read for the next couple of issues as well (if you've sent me something - I'm hoping to respond in the next couple of weeks). Long poems by MICHAEL CHANG, BEE LB, and Mahaila Smith to burn bright through the long nights.
