Corridor Zine: Submit Your Art and Poetry Today!

Calling all poets and artists along the I-5 Corridor! The zine “Corridor” needs you. The submission deadline is the 15th of each month. See below for details, FAQs, and other mind-blowing information.

The Intersection of AI and Poetry: Thoughts on Creativity

Do you have an opinion about A.I. in the creative world? I enjoyed listening to my poems as songs. It was easy to generate, took less than 2 minutes and it was free. Is it low-hanging fruit, another tool in the toolbox, or just pure creative laziness?

Praise you like I should

However, the stoic in me remembers the Epictetus quote, “Another person will not hurt you without your cooperation. You are hurt the moment you believe yourself to be.” Reel it in baby, you got this.

Poem: Long Kiss Goodbye

I see a fish on a platter
in the center of my table
garnished with onions, lemons
a cut of dill and salt
The first cut into its flakey flesh,
soft bones gently come out from hiding
between the sedimentary chunks
and gems of peppercorn

Corridor Celebrates!

We did it! Over 27 poets, 5 artists, +400 copies of the 10-paged zines printed and distributed over 13 months from Poetry Month 2022 to Poetry Month 2023! This month marks the final zine in this fun project. Over the next few weeks, I will share four of my favorite poems submitted to Corridor and submitted artwork as a remembrance of the year’s moments.

March Corridor

The March edition of Corridor is out and about. Please keep your eyes out for it around town. It’s a little 5×7 10-page zine, sitting there, wanting to wish you a good day. One more zine to go and the project will end. Poetry Month 2022 to Poetry Month 2023.

“Moss” is a sample of a poem in the zine. Hope you enjoy it.
