Poetry publication! So grateful to Editor-in-Chief Jaime Alejandro at CoalitionWorks for sharing this five haiku sequence of experimental works in their Fall edition of Coalition for Digital Narratives. Shout out to Eavonka Ettinger for conceiving of and pioneering '1980s' as a potent modern kigo... To contextualize the fourth stanza, “The Hellfire missile is fired from a Predator drone. It has no warhead, but deploys six blades which fly in at high speed, crush and slice the targeted person... It's named after the 1980 TV commercial for Japanese kitchen knives that would cut cleanly through aluminum cans and remain perfectly sharp. The Geneva Conventions are four treaties, and three additional protocols, that establish international legal standards for humanitarian treatment in war.” If you need a home for your short literary works I highly encourage you to submit your work to their quarterly journal dedicated to welcoming the weird and reconciling the absurd, celebrates finding the oddity in everyday life. They also have a very intriguing season of audio plays presently in production, as well as a very original artificial intelligence writing prompt series ongoing worth exploring and awaiting with great interest respectively! Plus if you need cheering up definitely worth navigating over to listen to their innovative audible "2-minute boost" series, you won't regret it... <3
