Subscribe to The Sharpener
The paid-subscriber version of The Sharpener includes weekly installments of craft pieces, approaches to writing problems, topics in contemporary publishing for writers, and biographical features on poets I consider important.
Of all these poems the one that I like best is "America Is A Gun." I think you associate quite well the names to the countries, even more so with the one about America being a gun. We have gone gun-crazy in this land.
Good read!
