Default Shot Glass Journal

Hello folks

I got two poems in the latest "Shot Glass Journal". They've both appeared here at some point, "On Waking" fairly recently and "1991" about four years ago! My thanks to anyone who read them or helped to tweak them.

(I told them to fix the typo in my bio. Not sure what "on shortlisted" means)

Nice, Mark! I remember "1991." Glad to see its erotic vulture find a nice roost.

It means diddly-squat, Mark, ...but "shortlisted'' on its own sure does, and that's the good bit!

Many congratulations. It's great to see your poetry being published more and more.

(As an aside, ''phantasmagoric'' is a wonderful word, Susan!)
