In case you haven't noticed, we're on hiatus! I (Jan) have been very busy with my new job. This whole project will probably be revived in the future, though, but not gonna set a date on that.
Thanks to everyone who submitted to and read Issue #1 --- throughout the month of May, we'll likely be working on migrating everything to a Wordpress site, given the repeated issues we've been having with our current service provider.
The first and the last. @platelet60 gives you "Reverse the Lamentation", which you will now read.
"IIt can't be done.
The author blown down time
like a bullet through a slab of gelatin,
and all we have are hollow traces."

Later this evening, we'll be highlighting the last piece from Issue #1. Don't miss it.
We've also (after deliberation) decided to stop doing things "Apocalypse Confidential" style and followed everyone we've published.
(We love Apoccon, for the record. Please don't hurt me.)
Here's @KeithJ904, playing off Issue #1 with "Drugged in a Paris Closet, Circa 1890" --- the second to last piece in the issue.
"The pianist composer has passed, but his legacy lives on."

Two poems by @thiz_vizion. "i want to write something, how you say, beautiful?" and "in the whistling brook" ---
two slam dunks. two homeruns.
"these rites being perfected,
he looks out from the bay window
and sees a woman flattened in the street"

Intruding on yourself. Get out of your own head. "I Can't Stop Thinking About Drinking Blood" by @wormfuneral.
"This is not a cry for help. This is a compulsion."

Double trouble. @metadegenerate is back with "Platonic Tummy Raspberries" ---
"none of the señioritas will dance with me, ay caramba, to cheer me up we go to a gay bar for free drinks, the city homos fill me up with so much god damn whiskey"

Three poems by @KPrijatelj, current poet laurate of Croatia and the eventual reason for the entire Staten Islander team being fatwa'd.
"So I ask the image generator
What did Muhammad really look like"

@MatherSchneider@PigPublishing @thiz_vizion yeah it loads slow as shit, sorry. heavily considering switching to wordpress or another, less dogshit hosting service
Here's @thiz_vizion, with "White Beater Coat Chirping; One Thousand"
"harper was creative because she painted
she died of cancer and was buried five
feet down instead of six so
she's different forever and also closer to the sun"

.@BlckPllPlsrBch is seeing red. You're in their sights. The latter-day Thomas Pynchon is here to walk you through the corporate graveyard.

Dark water, clear skies. @sinceritytrench is here. Concise summaries impossible, ringing in the new order of things in the year of our Lord 2023. Don't say you weren't warned.
"MY GREY IS NOT YOUR GREY."
