Reading Local Seattle

{ Read right this second. }

Tomorrow the always fantastic Kary Wayson is reading as part of SAM’s Word series. But it might be raining. Why leave the comfort of your own desk, when you can read Irrational Dude by Robert Mittenthal and Nico Vassilakis, a new chapbook of collaborative writing published by tir aux pigeons.

Until the crayons ran out of color. A gargantuan snag of me uphill. Supine on their backs an instrument with heads attached. The stars are out above the bivouac.
- from Testosterone Poisoning

Irrational Dude is a poem set between two spans of prose, so that in its entirety it is a seabird, a body carried by two wings.
- Petra Backonja
