carpe
sanguinem
by Rob Plath
how can i seize
the moment
when existence is
one big horror
flick
i suppose i can
plug
my ears from
the terrible
chainsaw
w/ the final rags
of my wings
gaze into the
mirror
& graffiti
some flowers
in blood on my skull
Contrary to popular belief, Rob Plath is not
yet under the jurisdiction of the worms. His latest book of poems, Batter
the Keyboard Like a Raptor Is Behind Yr Back, is available from
Laughing Ronin Press.
Bernice Holtzman’s paintings and collages have appeared in shows at various venues
in Manhattan, including the Back Fence in Greenwich Village, the Producer’s
Club, the Black Door Gallery on W. 26th St., and one other place she
can’t remember, but it was in a basement, and she was well received.
