Michael Annis (Senior editor of Howling Dog Press): I published the entire Quodlibet in the OMEGA literary magazine online series. It is an amazing, gargantuan poem filled with some of the toughest writing you will come across. Profound, harrowing cantos of dark beauty, billowing with flames of passion, remorse, grace, despair and defiance. The howl of the WordWulf is terrifying to behold: terrifying with magnificence and truth. I would paint with words, soft & violent colors stabbing, caressing did I mention stardust on the eyes of expectant children webs of parenthood fire night, embers of those forgotten ones clinging to the ragged edge fragile-aged, insecure passengers smaller & whose visage is an always-open door of hope those hands clutched against bony breasts of despair too oft' untouched & ne'er held by phantom strangers ourselves we are what are we children are pieces of a wonderful puzzle the sides & corners notes from readers Quite some time ago, I wrote you with only the words nice writing bro. Today I must tell you that your words paint pictures that usually only silence can describe. Sometimes, in life, there is this little pause, an escape if you will, from the constant bombardment surrounding. Often unexpected, and insipiently overwhelming, this pause, this moment can bring with it a shock, like a hot stove, and like a hot stove it can brand you forever. Just so, you light fires in quiet untouched spaces. So, to re-iterate... nice writing bro
