6) Does it confuse belief?
7) How many bone parts does it inhabit?
8) What basic route of ascent/ descent does it take?
9) Would it lay most pleasurably on a hard or wet surface?
10) What causes the most obvious disturbance in its peace?
11) How small a circle does it fit in?
12) What does it echo off of?
13) What grows around it when the lights dim?
14) What remains in its absence?

New Orleans Press: Fell Swoop Interview & Goodness

Poet Camille Martin has an excellent interview with poet and editor of Fell Swoop, the indefatigable Joel Dailey. I reviewed Dailey's last chapbook, Surprised by French Fries here. 

Martin's interview has a great chapbook cover display as well showcasing some unique Swoop covers. We have quite a collection of Swoops here at Casa Brinks/ Burns. Read the full review here.

This is my new chapbook fresh from the Fell Swoop factory. Cover by Tracey McTague.
