LIONTAMER'S BLUES

Regarding my Red Ceilings Press ebook, Olifaunt:

“Just like ‘Olifaunt’ is the incorrect spelling of ‘elephant’ in a modern view, all of the poems in this collection are not written in proper English…. The formatting of these poems amuses me, as several of them look as though they were once a part of the script of a computer program. This association helps me ignore my usual dislike for somewhat illogical poems since programming languages are by no means logical to read.” —from a student review of Olifaunt

The Olifaunt responds:

“Incorrect spelling is Just like the of ‘elephant’. In all computer of the poems written in once a part this not collection proper are English. Though they the formatting of in these them poems amuses as several of me, look as by no means of were the script a program of. This ‘Olifaunt’ helps me usual ignore my association dislike for a somewhat modern view, illogical since poems read programming to languages are logical.” —from a Olifaunt student of review

My poem, ghostlong is now up at elimae.

Fun fact: this poem and its title were at one time the alternate end poem and title to none other than my Red Ceilings Press chapbook, Olifaunt. I’m glad it’s been published, and I’m happy to once again have work featured with elimae. Thanks, Coop!

If you haven’t read J. Bradley’s A Patchwork of Rooms Furnished by Mistakes, you are against us and some gang of terrorists is winning. Take America back and let Jesse kick it with you a bit. Red Ceilings Press gave me some space to convince you of this. Hang out and read my chapbook, Olifaunt, while you’re there; we’ll make it a party!

I have been informed that my Red Ceilings Press chapbook, Olifaunt, will be used among works by JD Nelson, Joseph A. W. Quintela, Larry Sawyer, Larissa Shmailo, and Felino A. Soriano in Keith Higginbotham’s creative writing class this semester. Can I be in better company? I don’t think so.

My new chapbook, “Olifaunt,” is available for free through Red Ceilings Press (viewed on ISSUU or downloaded as a PDF).

Please take the time to look through the many brilliant works Red Ceilings Press has to offer; order their print titles! My sincere gratitude to Mark Cobley for allowing my work to part of the Red Ceilings family. Thanks, Mark!
