Machine Made of Words
Master builder Luigi-Bob Drake has put up this astonishing site for Keith and Rosemary Waldrop's Burning Deck Press. It's named after William Carlos Williams... “To make two bald statements: There's nothing sentimental about a machine, and: A poem is a small (or large) machine made of words” (from “Author's Introduction to The Wedge”).
MANOA: A Pacific Journal of International Writing
Published since 1989 by the University of Hawai’i Press, this beautifully produced journal prints work from Asia, the Pacific and America, new writers, authors from vanishing languages, & awardwinners. Samples from the current & back issues & an index of contributors are on their Web site.
The Melic Review
“Melic” = “intended to be sung,” editor C.E. Chaffin entitled his opening-issue essay for poets seeking publication “Modulations” & the Melic Review features such musical works as Kathleen Carbone’s “And Flights of Angels.” Robert Frost’s “Acquainted with the Night” is in the “Dead White Men” feature in the September 1999 issue -- audio for spoken word lovers.
milk
Larry Sawyer & Lina ramona Vitkauskas' brand-new zine is “sustenance for the masses.” Witness the nutrition in Michael Rothenberg's “My Whole Body Shakes With Creation.”
MiPo
Didi Menendez & Jim Christ are the motivators behind MiPoesias Magazine, which has been “bringing dignity to digital” since the turn of the millennium in 2000. Interviews, reviews, art & poems from an impressive roster of poets... published quarterly online + MiPo~Print PDF “poetry brought to your printer” for your mobile poetry pleasure.
The Missouri Review
The Missouri Review is still primarily a print lit mag (& a well respected good one, at that). Its Web site offers “online selections” of some fine poetry from the magazine, including that of Maxine Kumin, Tina Chang & Marilyn Hacker.
Mudlark
Mudlark promises, and delivers, “fast load, slow read.” Its graphically simple pages & simple-to-download etext files are full of poetic treasures like “Wild Ribbons” by Frances Driscoll.
Multiple Insertions
Forget cappuccino and poetry -- it's salsa and the spoken word! Check out the Taco Shop Poets & other contributors to this community arts project from San Diego.
