Two poems, “[
Pastoral med – ian ]” and “Franc – / {AND} {is} / es.” appear in Vestiges _02:
Ennui, published by Black Sun Lit; the launch was August 11 at Unnameable Books
in Brooklyn. In keeping with the theme of the issue, it is wholly appropriate
that I neither attended nor was invited. Several did attend, brought together
by anti-ennui violence, including Haley Hemenway Sledge. Her short story, “Two
Girls,” is my favorite work in the issue. Her middle name, Hemenway, is also the
name of a street in Boston, where the mysterious [ M ] once lived on bagels and
acid.
