“Dreaming
I turn loose my slackened eye, until it registers—the grain—
until the texture leads
me out: lucid exit from this skin…”

@AHightowersight , also known as Dickie, joins us at hofART with a beautiful poem about orchids (absolutely no vaginal symbolism here...none at all). Dickie is one of the editors over at @APCON_MAG , and we spend a fair amount of time talking about how awesome ApCon is. If you're not hip to ApCon, yet, you're missing out. They're putting out some of the best stuff in the game, especially poetry, where each piece they publish just floors me. Of course, we discuss her favorite writers and poets, especially JG Ballard. Neither one of us really understands Houellebecq, but don't hate on us. We also talk about how friggin' young she looks despite her "advanced maternal age"...lol. No butt stuff this time, but we still have fun. Go to the stack! https://t.co/SYZAyy7Px8
Stolen corporate identity, a 7 meter long infrasonic tube called John Holmes, audio weapon systems, raw reindeer meat soaked in vodka, a cryptic EKG chart -- all this and more in my essay on Finnish electronic music legends Pan Sonic, only in @APCON_MAG

“There’s an opening? At the bar.”
The doorman looks him over again and then steps aside. Knox crosses. He holds the paper still. Held in two hands, a totem. The doorman shuts and bolts the door behind him.

Coming up on the deadline for this in just about 2 WEEKS. Send us your submissions. Launch them into the sky with fireworks. Tie them to a cement block and drop it from a bridge. Bury them deep in the bowels of a septic tank. Shoot them with machine guns. It's AMERICAN BESTIARY.
