An Emerald Fist of Pistols

Tilt-a-Whirl, an online poetry journal spun off from Kate Burnadette Benedict’s Umbrella Journal, hits today with its first issue. Its thing is repeating forms, and in it, under villanelles, is “The Theme from Shaft: III. History” by our very own. Read also villanelles by Marybeth Rua-Larsen and Michael Cantor, something nonce by Mary Meriam, and a ballad [no “e”] by Maryann Corbet. And read the new Umbrella. And, since I’m just talkin’ ‘bout Shaft, read all three parts in my chapbook Aquinas Flinched. Support an independent publisher of poetry and help me make my nut. Because the Modern Metrics imprint at Exot…these people are leg breakers.
