George Albon's A Small Sill


New George Albon is always a very welcome treat, and this past week I received TWO new Albon numbers in the mail. This first, on Sardines Press out of SF (edited by Roger Snell?) is kind of impossible to find: no homepage, no distribution, just an address: 303 Ortega St., SF, 94122. So if you want one, you'll have to write a note. The incredible book-making achievement here is that the thread perfectly matches the cover stock (which is actually a pretty significant feat!). Here's a taste of George at work:

*
Sun cut frost
light green bud
noon bend in

*
I felt the lilac
in my hand
the stem-stalk
a living throat
proximal to some
urban sheds
