Another stellar edition of HSTQ. Great cover. My personal favorites this issue:1. Dave Newman - "Nothing Was Going On" - a fun tale from an adult dancing establishment.2. Leah Miller - "Thoughts and Prayers" - Drinking, suicide, and the 700 Club.3. India LaPlace - "They'll Say It Was Postpartum Depression" - Probably had the most emotional punch. Really sad. Really good.Also really liked the contributions of Brice Mairro, Casey Renee Kiser, David Boski, and the rest of the poets.
This is my second reading of this issue, and it's still hard to pick favorites amongst all the good stuff. Benjamin Blake's poem is the first, with a deep breath of winter chill and familiarity. Brice Mairro rides the ethereal bull of writing, while India Laplace breaks my heart into 10,000 pieces. Again. Ben John Smith, poet at 11, rules, and John D. Robinson puts a big smile on my face. Jessie Bushman expresses my own thoughts about math, and Leah Mueller touches me with irony. Johnny Sc...
solid issue. a bag of mixed nuts, as usual but with the common theme of bare bones on a platter. it's always a nice break from our sometimes toxic, fake reality. HSTQ says 'fuck it man, let's just get real.' Favorites are 'Relationship Calculus' by Jessie Bushman, 'They'll Say it was Postpartum Depression' by India LaPlace - what a gem, 'Under Taker Her' by Stephanie M. Wytovich, the Johnny Scarlotti double feature ;) and 'Thoughts and Prayers' by Leah Mueller.
The first massive poem in this issue is They'll Say it Was Postpartum Depression by India Laplace, Incredibly moving, will bring any hyper reader down to earth.This one has quite a few names I've heard of Benjamin Blake, Ian Copestick, Rodney Gardner, Casey Renee Kiser, Angelica Arsan....the list goes on. Each of these poets produce some brilliant work and that's why I reckon this has to be one of the best that HSTQ has released.Great start to 2019!
