Blast Furnace, orchestrated by Rebecca Clever, has released its Summer issue, full of outstanding poets. Although gloom engulfs me these days, a serious joy emblazons my heart when I remember that my poem "Inside Metal," a naked commentary on the alienation of the Machine Era, is included in the issue. This is one of my best ever. Let me share my favorite stanza:
you fidget
with dials and buttons
like a fetus in a robot’s womb.
under savage pistons,
the machine can feel you kick.
To read the rest, go to:
Blast Furnace Press
And scroll down to Sept. 10, where the Issue is located (the site is arranged in blog format).
To read my review of this highly impressive journal, go here:
Owl On the Furnace
A huge hoot of approval to Rebecca Clever on the quality and power of her latest offering.
Well done.
Owl
