This new journal includes work by Ted Kooser and very cool art by Heather Seide. I am happy to have my poem, “Intoxication,” included as well. https://online.fliphtml5.com/nnzao/xinr/#p=66
Some years ago I had the absolute honor of writing poems to be included as part of Bonnie Ferrill Roman’s vivid, striking installations at the Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities Paper.Works exhibit. Her work was a diptych in two alcoves of the gallery space, entitled Ready to Burst, and Unravelling, on the themes of pregnancy and pregnancy loss, in her signature medium of handmade paper. These poems are now being published this spring in the literary magazine Collaburature, the focus of which is the pairing of verbal and visual art.
It features “Render,” which was part of Unravelling: https://collaborature.blogspot.com/2025/03/render-mb-fr.html?m=1
and “Gravida,” which was part of Ready to Burst: https://collaborature.blogspot.com/2025/05/gravida-mb-fr.html?m=1
