for inclusion in the Pittsburgh Poetry Houses project. More about this interesting project: “As you walk through the city, you’ll see tiny wooden boxes on a mailbox post titled ‘Poetry House.’ Behind a plexiglass door are four quarter-sheet-sized poems, free for the taking. When you check back in a couple weeks, the old poems are gone and new poems have popped up in their place. Soon, you can’t wait until the next re-up of your local Poetry House.” Pittsburgh Poetry Houses
A short poem in the latest issue of “Bird’s Thumb…”

A winter poem for a hot day…
Another poem from the Spring issue of the Schuylkill Valley Journal.
Triggerfish, Issue 16
Three poems starting off Issue 16 of Triggerfish. Triggerfish is a unique journal in that authors whose works are published in a certain issue also provide critiques of other works in that same issue, so that I also had the opportunity to provide some thoughts on the poetry of Keith Dunlap, R. Nemo Hill, and Dan Jacoby.
“A Way Across”
One of a few poems in the Spring issue of the Schuylkill Valley Journal.

Three new poems…
are up in the summer issue of the Provo Canyon Review, featuring the Holy Trinity of hunting, fishing and fiddleheads…
New Poem in “Blueline Magazine”
SUNY Potsdam’s “Blueline Magazine” (a beautiful, full-color publication) bills itself as being “dedicated to the spirit of the Adirondacks,” but I guess a poem about Quabbin reservoir comes close enough…

Asnuntuck College’s Freshwater journal will feature one of these in their summer issue, U.SanFran’s Switchback magazine has accepted a poem about a lost hatchet (?), a new poem will appear in The Lakeview Journal (out of India, of all places), a couple will appear in The Homestead Journal this fall, and another in the next copy of Mary Gillilan’s Clover magazine out in Washington State. (Yet another) poem featuring an orchard will appear later this summer in Killing the Angel, and a couple of others will appear in Mud Season Review, though they won’t see daylight until the Spring of 2017. The Provo Canyon Review has accepted a slug of poems for publication in July, and Writer’s Block (published in the Netherlands) will be featuring a couple later this fall.
The Valparaiso Poetry Review and The Summerset Review…
have accepted “Thrift Store Coats” and “Nocturne with Worms,” respectively. These are both favorite journals of mine, so their acceptance is pretty neat…..
