poem at Strange Horizons!

My poem "Minnie or Maude" is up at Strange Horizons. It is inspired by Ruth Gordon's two most famous film roles (in Rosemary's Baby and Harold and Maude). I'd wanted to write it for years, and then I finally did. As always, I'm delighted to have my work in this wonderful magazine.

Gwynne’s Quotes

“Mrs Woodburn was not an enthusiastic young wife, but knew very well that marriage had its drawbacks, and had come to an age at which she could appreciate the comfort of having her own way without any of the bother. She gave a furtive glance after Lucilla, and could not but acknowledge to herself that it would be very foolish of Miss Marjoribanks to marry, and forfeit all her advantages, and take somebody else's anxieties upon her shoulders, and never have any money except what she asked from her husband.”
― Mrs. Oliphant, The Chronicles of Carlingford (6 Works): Fiction and Literature
