Issue #4 of Geneva13 comes out this week. There will be a release party at the Red Dove Tavern in Geneva, NY if anybody cares to drop by. They throw a good release party.

And if anybody wants a copy of #4, just let me know.

The kids' poems were marvelous!
There was one that just encapsulated teen angst so perfectly, I had to giggle a little.

Kevin,

The missus picked up issue 3 when she went to Adelaide recently.

Neat.

I have some fiction similar to John R. Lord's ramblings, if you are interested in another contribution of that kind for #5.

I see I am not the first person to have thought of the 'Bedsaw' Bedlam. This is the sort of thing...

In the following account of his time in Bedsaw our poet omits several very pertinent details of his stay, for reasons of haste and also surely out of concern for his reputation as a scholar and a thinker. Firstly, the unspecified book for which he scours the Bedsaw Library was none other than the Malefactum Maleficarum, a collection of encounters with otherworldly creatures, compiled by the venerable Bernard Bernaise, but widely discredited by his own time.

Also of note is that the “certain hospital” that he mentions was in fact the Bedsaw Bedlam, destroyed by fire in the year of his death by a disturbed inmate. In its time it was a notably noisome and disquieting place.

We join our poet as he is describing his own reasons for visiting Bedsaw:

Time spent in the strange city of Bedsaw has been the subject of several tracts by statesmen, the ramblings of an opium doctor and the vulgar disclosures of a drunken seamstress, in descending merit. None make mention of the particular feature of the place that is the subject of this memoir, but the Scottish statesman James 'Jordie' Jordan gives us a description of the Bedsaw Library in his own day:

“The library here is a predictably squalid affair. The librarian is a drunken imbecile who has persistently badgered me to buy one of her vile floral bookmarks, and when asked, was unable to provide me with the King’s Dictionary (which, you will understand, I did not require. I was merely testing the woman). The place had nothing from after the turn of the century, and when I inquired as to why, I was informed that no new stock had been bought in over 60 years because the shelves were full. Ludicrous. I cannot wait to return to the mainland.”

I don't do this (fishing for comments) very often- but, Daisy, you're a writer whose work I admire...what'd you think of my poem (Seared)?

Steve -- I didn't know that was your poem!
Honestly, I liked it very much. It was rather Jesse Bernstein-esque, and I adore his stuff.
Bravo!

Glad you liked it Daisy.

I'm completely unfamiliar with Jesse Bernstein, so I did a quick google search of that name, and found several different results. Would you mind linking me to the Jesse Bernstein you're referring to (incidentally, FWIW, people sometimes tell me my work reminds them of Tom Waits and/or Bukowski- but, to be compared to someone I'm unfamiliar with, makes me want to find out more)?

Sure!
He was pretty incredible, if you ask me. The official MySpace has some of his work up in the blogs:
