Recently I was fortunate enough to get four poems posted on Punk Noir Magazine. This publication is “purportedly an online arts and entertainment magazine that looks at the world at its most askew, casting a bloodshot eye over” any variety of material. So, I encourage you to float around the site and see what their other contributors have presented. The plethora of styles and themes ensures odds of finding some gems. Perhaps the four from Oak Ayling or the five by N. B Turner, but the point is taking the risk.
Poetry and fiction tastes are so often subjective that I find audiences, as well as myself, often end up stagnating. We consume the same material over and over. It’s not to say the meal isn’t satisfying. However, satisfaction aside, things get dull. It amounts to being stuck in a rut. That’s why it’s vital to plunge in arenas with varied creators. They’ll present pieces you might not’ve sought out yet come to treasure, not to mention revealing notions and perspective you might not’ve considered.
Too much of the familiar dulls the senses. So, a shakeup is always worth taking the chance. It’s the only way to find new things which light up the brain like fireworks. Even exploring something that turns out to be disappointing can be refreshing. Either way, when a person comes back to the familiar, they’re likely to find the flavor revitalized.
With that in mind, please check out my four poems--Shotgun Sculpture, Bent Silverware, A Revolver Full of Teeth, and Prayer—then explore the rest that Punk Noir Magazine has to offer. Cheers!
