Poem: Gunfight In Manhattan

– the poet

I’m a little slow in announcing this, but my poem “Gunfight In Manhattan” has been published in the online journal My Favorite Bullet.

The poem is a part of my upcoming collection Rumsfeld’s Sandbox and follows the publication of other poems in the collection. Those poems include:

  • “Battlefield Confession”
  • “Cigar”
  • “Life”
  • “Love And War”
  • “Old Goth”
  • “20 Acres”
  • “Nocturne: Battlefield Sonnet”
  • “The Armor Dims”
  • “Carcass”
  • “Siege”
  • and “I Like War”

You will soon be able to read Rumsfeld’s Sandbox online as a digital book with audio presentations and downloadable .PDF broadsides and chapbooks. The planned publication date is March 19. Savvy readers will know that this is the anniversary date of the Iraq invasion, particularly the air strike on the presidential palace in Iraq.

More information will be published soon regarding Rumsfeld’s Sandbox. Meanwhile, take a peak at “Gunfight In Manhattan“.

When I Come Home, The Video

– the poet

Yesterday, I posted a poem I wrote recently, a habit I don’t want to start, but I thought I’d share the video of me reading it today for the second Friday Video installment. The poem is titled “When I Come Home.” I hope you enjoy it.
