POETRY DMD 2021

 

Happy Mother’s Day to all you demented mothers! Of course, we love you . . . How could we not? You gave us birth (along with nightmares and daymares) and we are devoted to showing you how much we love and appreciate you. Here’s to everyone who dares to embrace and manifest their creative impulses . . .

Please join me in thanking all the poets who have shared their wonderfully disturbing work with us – and yes, we have contributors from the United States as well as England and Ireland!

Until Next Time,

Yours in the darkness and the shadow realms between,

Terrie Leigh Relf
