Anyway, I have been revising and gathering some of my favorites that seem to coalesce well enough. I am an avid fan of the Poetic Asides Blog on the Writers' Digest site and frequent it more times than I'd like to admit. I was checking a new post the other day and saw one of the editors has begun a series titled, "Assembling and Submitting a Poetry Collection"- what are the odds? He has found a publisher for his collection of poetry and has decided to share his experience with the world. I highly recommend checking it out if you are in the market for some poetry publishing advice.
All these publication ponderings have me itching to share my writing with the world, so I decided I'll share a few pieces of my own on the blog in hopes that it will ease the super scary transition to submitting a complete work of fiction or poetry. So read, comment, or just pass right on through...
This is a series of senryu I wrote while sitting in the waiting room of a hospital:
Amy Glamos
I wait in the room
where waiting is implied;
a tissue-laden limboIntensive care;
vulnerability that
opens at the backReconciled beneath
the many wires and machines,
lies his spirit, marred.
