Sinopsis

This twelfth issue of Hippocampus Press&rsquo,s award-winning journal of weird poetry begins with David Barker&rsquo,s affecting acrostic sonnet in memory of the late W. H. Pugmire. Contributions by other leading contemporary poets&mdash,Leigh Blackmore, Frank Coffman, Adam Bolivar, Benjamin Blake, Christina Sng, and many others&mdash,are scattered throughout the issue. We also find vivid and evocative prose poems by Maxwell I. Gold, Manuel Arenas, and Wade German.áThomas Tyrrell writes a poem in tribute of renowned fantaisiste Lord Dunsany, Don Webb evokes the shade of Edgar Allan Poe, Carl E Reed draws upon the work of Arthur Machen, and Manuel Pérez-Campos pays homage to the comic book Creepy. Nicole Cushing contributes a poem that fuses grimness and beauty, while Scott J. Couturier teases out the horrific potential of Greek myth.áTwo classic reprints&mdash,by Ernest Dowson and Arthur Symons&mdash,hint at the bountiful stores of weirdness in poetry of the turn of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. S.áT. Joshi offers his assessment of Wade German&rsquo,s recent poetry collection, while Donald Sidney-Fryer waxes eloquent about D. L .Myers&rsquo,s long-awaited omnibus.
