When I set out on this poetry journey thing 26 months ago it was the poetry of Bryan Borland that inspired that beginning. I found that poetry could have an emotional wallop and he was writing stuff about being gay outside of large urban communities that registered with me. It was my dream to have something published one day in the journal he started and edits--Assaracus. I was really excited and a bit overwhelmed when he accepted my poems in September. They were just published a few days ago. I am not sure how I feel--I am thrilled and a little befuddled too. The other poems in the issue are by and large very impressive and I am honored to have my poems with them. I will blog more when I figure out all my reactions more. Here are links if you are interested in the issue.
