It is my pleasure to announce that my poem, "Vertebra" has been published in Clepsydra Literary and Art Magazine, Issue 3: Reflection.
In "A Supermarket in California" Allen Ginsberg talks about "shopping for images" and I think that is a great deal of what poets do before we write. I am lucky to live on the border of a nature reserve with abundant woods and wetlands as well as a river in my backyard--almost any expedition out-of-doors means gathering imagery for poetry. This poem is one such creation.
