ABRIDGED - beautiful, silent and free


The silence issue of Abridged poetry and art magazine is now out and what a gorgeous object it is. Each page is different with stunning artwork accompanying the poems. Just look at the cover image above!

I have a poem 'Dreamless' at Sec1:12 in the FREE pdf copy available to download. I love Aileen Kelly's cotton-stitched boy image which is paired with my poem. Beautiful.

It's a beautiful, visceral poem, Nuala - the imagery paints the words fiercely but there's delicacy and detail to it. And the whole mag has that delicate and vibrant balance.

Isn't Kelly's stitched boy the most moving thing you saw in cotton? Gorgeous.

Off for a root through the back issues...
