H_NGM_N #12 and "TONIGHT THE SUN IS SHINING"

I know I'm late to the party. Nevertheless, I do have a couple of new poems in H_NGM_N #12. There's so much great stuff in this one. I'm really honored to be in it. Check it out.

Additionally, Noah Falck was kind to post this video of me reading "Tonight the Sun Is Shining" from WOLF FACE. The video was recorded on April 14th at the Bon Mot/ley Series Reading I did in Cincinnati with Catherine Wagner.

LIGHT-HEADED

Hi Friends,

I'm super pleased to announce that my new full-length collection of poems, LIGHT-HEADED, has just been published by BlazeVOX with cover art by my friend and Art Academy colleague Ken Henson.

You can read a bit about the book and order it directly from BlazeVOX (which is the preferable method, because it supports a small press) here.

Of course, it's also available from Amazon.

Thanks everyone for all of your support.

All best,

Matt

PAUL VIOLI (1944 - 2011)

So sad to hear that my friend Paul Violi--a truly marvelous poet and teacher--passed away on Saturday after a battle with pancreatic cancer. Buy his books. Read his work. Spread the word. He's one of the most under-appreciated GREAT poets we've ever had in America. More soon.
