Another time, I give you with even greater pleasure: Harbinger Asylum. A quarterly magazine by Transcendent Zero Press (transcendentzeropress.org) which just published two of my poems featured in the Woodland Legends; “Lake Fortitude” and “A Last Resort”. In addition to poetry, this Summer Edition of Harbinger Asylum succeeded in conjunction with Mitali Chakravarty’s Borderless Journal (borderlessjournal.com) which makes it even more valuable and might be worth a purchase.
If you want to acquire a copy of both and read the work of many other interesting poets, you can obtain a paperback copy here.
An insight into “Lake Fortitude”:
Days go by. Lake Fortitude stays the same and the Keeper sits and weeps.
After all desire had been stripped from his being he had no choice but to sit and contemplate his misery at the edge of the cursed waters.
His poem tells of better days – of his journey, of his longing and of his defeat.
The prospect of him becoming a noticeable person had been shattered even after roaming lands far beyond his which made him forfeit once and for all. Centuries passed. Legends tell about the strange human-shaped rock residing at the edge of the lake and tell stories about the human who once received the blessing of the cursed Lake.
