Georges Méliès’ “A Trip to the Moon.” (1902).

I’m embarrassed to admit that I don’t quite follow all of this … why are the scientists dressed like wizards at first?  Do the planets somehow make it snow on the moon at one point?  Those crazy French.

I am absolutely honored today to see three of my poems published in Issue 26 of Impspired in the United Kingdom.  The three poems are “At the Coffee Shop,” “Autumn Girl” and “A Poet’s Short Note to His Muse.”

You can find all three poems right here.  The print edition will be released at the end of January.

Thanks once again to Editor Steve Cawte for allowing me to see my work appear in such an outstanding independent literature magazine!
