Issues 21 & 22 are at the printer!!
If you want to help keep a lit mag that pays & prints & prices fairly & ships quickly going strong (or at least, going) your pre-orders of one or both of these music-themed issues would be rad. They're fantastic.

Robert Hayden masterpiece:
New poem, same muse. Thank you to @anthonyframe.bsky.social for making space for this one in @glasspoetry.bsky.social, a journal I have loved for so very long.

Copy by copy, every hard-earned sale of a poetry collection is an act of trust, a contract between the poet and the reader that reaches far beyond cash. This is why I refuse to shy away from reminding you about Whatever You Do, Just Don't.
Drop me a DM and I'll sort out your signed copy for you...
