ABOUT NIHILIST POET MILITIA: WEST

Words are dangerous. So are blank spaces.

This zine is arbitrary, without clear function, and prone to injury. Welcome to the secret lair of poets, anarchists, spelunkers, and scofflaws.

You are welcome to leave at any time.


General strategy: Poetry, anti-poetry, sub-poetry; Very short stories (i.e. flash or micro fiction); memories, hauntings; proletarian lit, working class lit; surrealist tracts; crime fiction; speculative visions; how-to manuals; broken teeth spit into the face of power.

Also: photos of abandoned lots and/or junkyards.


Organizing principle: Collectivist


Decision-making protocol: Consensus and/or sporadic bursts of wild individualism


Mascots: The badger, the marmot, the petrel
