NerveHouse has launched itself with a first issue, funded in part by proceeds from a silent auction of donated art. This mixed media canvas "Bird Brain" was my contribution to the auction (hope it at least brought in more than the cost of mailing it to Wisconsin.)  This print literary journal, a quarterly, includes in its first issue my poem "clean house" which is stunning and insightfull and politically and socially challenging. . . GET the journal to read this and other outstanding poetry and prose together in one 3D place. Go here for more info :
