"Sing a song
for the men I loved
whom I had to throw back in the sea
Sing a song
for all the men with
holes in their hearts
where their mothers should be
Yes, sing a beautiful song for them
but write a concerto for me"

Submissions open in just one week, 21 August, for Issue 8 Fear.
As before, we’re pairing the theme with our inherent focus: the gritty, the mundane, the uncomfortable, the human. Fear is universal, but the way we live with it is personal.
So tell us, what do you fear?
ALT Explore the fear of losing control of your own body What is a fear you have grown out of? The fear that happiness won’t last Fear as control
ALT The fear of the abused become the abuser Existential fears; the fear of being stuck in the same cycle Fear of the unknown How fear arises from trauma
ALT What childhood fears followed you into adulthood? What is the first fear you remember? Explore a fear passed down through generations An everyday fear people have but don’t discuss

We're all in recovery from something. Substances that burn us out, shadows of the past, an inability to feel real in our own lives. We are more circle than publication. Ever widening. Welcoming. Join us, friends. Submissions close on April 26th. heroinchic.weebly.com

We follow the trails laid out before us in life, and try to leave our own tracks in the snow, a hint of where and how to go, but the truth of it is we all walk our own way. Still. Share with us the journey. The lay of the land. Our submissions are open. heroinchic.weebly.com/

"A poem is an invocation," writes Susan Howe. [A] "rebellious return to the blessedness of beginning again." The stories we now tell are the one's we reclaim from the ashes of our earliest woundings. A remaking of the home we are. Share with us your story.

"A white woman calls me a shaman
I laugh in indigenous
Or whatever blood quantum calls me/I cannot be a thing/deducted
A thing I cannot enter - that is my own
The land is a body..
the body is a
dance and I do not like the music
it is too beautiful."

New poem out today in Anti-Heroin Chic. Very proud of this piece-- was reworked so many times-- and worth each revision. Arla deserves her story in print. She also deserved a kick a$$ title for her story....

Our submissions close tomorrow friends. There might be snow heavy on the tundra but there's also a fierce heat in our hearts. Love is a muscle, pain the road we travel to break into a thousand points of light. If it were easier it wouldn't come out singing heroinchic.weebly.com/
