Taylor Ward is back with another banger! It's been such a great year and this is SUCH A GREAT PIECE. We're so grateful for Taylor! What is your favorite holiday movie? I'm building traps in my house to ward out the evils of Krampus, but who is going to be my movie cameo that ages horribly? #dogyard

Today is scary. My first poem has officially been published to Rust & Moth! It’s been such a weird and long road to get here but I’m a published writer (of sorts) now. I don’t know what to do now but be hopeful that you enjoy it. Thanks. Bless.
Screenshot of a web page. The words are a poem by Edith Krone titled “at work, the new guy asks”

“you prefer she, right?
i want to say that it is not really a preference,
it just is, my life is not made up of preferences
but if it was, i would simply prefer to not be here.
i would prefer a cliffside, a Van Gogh landscape,
a menagerie of colors so bright that my eyes could
not focus, but mostly, i prefer to not see. if forced to,
id prefer to see the world through my eyes and through my eyes
i am six feet of stardust and Tennessee sunshine.
we heard how in Van Gogh's Starry Night, you could tell
the time through the stars but around here we mostly guess.
in the night humidity, we tell time by the cricket's chirp
and distant city lights--Marlboro smoke rising in place of us.”

In the debut of the #boneyard, Emily McKenna gives insight to the #Keats poem “Ode to a Nightingale.” Join us as we dig through the classics and see what we can learn! #dogyard is ready for your work! We accept #poetry, #fiction, #art, #cnf, #essay, and more!
Photo with painting of a man in the woods, deep in thought. There is another photo of a girl smiling in front of plants and glasses on her head. The text says The Boneyard with a quote, "This text is a work of contrasts; the old style meets the new, nature meets his scientific background, and the efforts of the nightingale contrast with the narrator's own. As for style, writing with a Shakespearean quatrain and Petrarchan sestet creates an air of familiarity.”

Today, #dogyard debuted our classical section. In my intro, I identified the importance of literary heritage. It truly means the world to me to know that I am apart of something larger than myself. With the arts being attacked, it is important to think of the past and the future we CAN build.

#dogyard would like to introduce you to our "Dog of the Week" Kya Pringle Prax! Kya Pringle Prax is a lively Alaskan husky who began life on a path to be an Iditarod runner... until she discovered couches and pillows and that ice is kind of cold on her paws. Still, she loves to run--mostly away. :(
