In honor of National Poetry Month, The Rumpus is featuring new, previously unpublished poems by 30 different authors in 30 days. My poem “Xanthic the Day, Cyanic the Day” is the poem for today.
Also, if you missed it, here’s a nice LGBT-focused AWP recap by David Groff at the Lambda Literary site. I’m stealing this photo of me and RJ Gibson, one of my Seven Kitchens Press mates, from the Bloom party at The Wrangler:

Speaking of Seven Kitchens Press, the Robin Becker Chapbook Prize, for an original, unpublished poetry manuscript in English by a Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered or Queer writer, is accepting submissions until May 15th. Check out the details here.
