My Heart’s Not Broken
So, aside from a very sore back, I’ve returned from the stress echo completely intact. My heart, aside from a little minor arrhythmia, isn’t infected with anything, and doesn’t show any other problems. I got to hear it – the tech played the rhythm, that tell-tale lub-dub, and I got to see the fuzzy pictures. The fun part was running a thirty-percent incline at five miles an hour. Yah. Good times.
Featured Fractured Fairytales
In Poetry News, I am honored to be the featured poet at Endicott Studio’s Journal of Mythic Arts Spring Anniversary issue. Some fantastic essays on the origins of various fairy tales – Rapunzel, the Arabian Nights – some wonderful art work. And great lists in some of the essays of which poets and fictionists to read if you’re interested in this kind of thing. I could read it for days. Just like those lolcats pictures.

And congratulations on your feature in the Journal of Mythic Arts. Amazing poems. Especially, “Conversation with the Stepmother, at the Wedding,” “Becoming the Villainess,” and “Allerleirauh Reveals Her True Self to the Prince”.

By the way, enjoyed your poem at Siren’s latest issue, Jeannine. – “a dangerous wonderland” indeed. Great work.
