Strange Cage 5

Strange Cage is solid gold. Bite it. Toss it into your treasury atop your casks of jewels. Pour it down your throat. You'll see that we're for real. Our poetry is right now. We'll have NEW CHAPBOOKS by Nick Demske and Quincy Anna Benton there alongside their beloved authors! We'll have ANALOG INTERNET POETRY POSTCARDS by Steve Roggenbuck! And we'll have a chapbook BARGAIN BIN! "WHAT IS ALL THIS $WEET WORK WORTH / IF THOU KI$$ NOT ME?"
