New works in A-Minor Magazine

Great news! Four poems of your truly with visual arrangements by Michael Orr were recently published in the newest issue of A-Minor Magazine. 

THE LINK https://aminormagazine.com/2023/09/28/three-pieces-22/

One of the poems got as far as getting featured as the issue's cover. 

One of the poems (the last one) originates from my Ukrainian-language probably never coming out book called “Дурисвіт”.

The rest are from Go Boating project.

Back in 2012 I had another feature in A-Minor Magazine. In fact, it was one of my earliest publications. These were some of my clumsy scanographies titled Wordfall. Check it out https://aminormagazine.com/2012/07/16/wordfall/

Just in case, I've got translations for the poems 

1.
bom-bom.
it’s a bubble

the wind blows with this odd ringing,

a hair-raising sensation of
an overwhelming senselessness…

an abominable swish abound.

2.
ray smashed to nil.
This moment is quite something.

wordless stars –
an earthquake of infinity –
all for nothing.

the curtain of the eyelashes –
grotesquely weaved
and very crooked

– the gust of eldritch.

Oblique fatigue.

3.
a gentle breeze
flows with a rumble
– the curly feeling:

the palm tree of the back of the neck.
the broken flash of eyelids,

sheer helplessness,
bosh!

untying the shadow with zeal,

this seething squawk…

4.
the volcano of the eye
got crumbled by the cheekbones
jumping up and down.

the round tatters
are catching up downwards –
wild mane lashes out of nowhere –

a burn:

the ripples reflection got lost on the other side
– eyelids play a trill
beads roll down the spine
rolling the bell’s tongue into an incessant drone:

the burst of the braid scythe –
light shrapnel’s dap
goes inside out
– whiplash with a skewed syncope

stuck like a cork in here –
a cloud stretches out into a thin vertical strip until it fully dissipates.
