ankh_hplActually, it's been up for a couple of days now . .. but there's still lots of National Poetry Month left, & plenty of time to enjoy this latest issue of the Science Fiction Poetry Association's online magazine.
Edited by Lester Smith, this issue features speculative poetry in form -- in dizzying variety. From well-known forms like haiku, cinquain, sonnet, or villanelle, to lesser known structures like the reverse fibonacci, there's something here to appeal to any SF reader. As a formalist myself, I also appreciated the introduction for this issue
Whatever you do, don't miss the final poem. You may not thank me for this advice . . . but you'll enjoy it!
Truth in LiveJournaling: I have two poems in this one. Check under Villanelle for "Lullaby for Arachnophobes," & at the beginning of Sonnet for "Giving Up the Ghost."
