Missed the autumn issue of PNG Poetry Online... slipped a divorce in there and endured a few other gnarly and unpleasant personal things... came out the other end and it's nearly November... or will be by the time I get this page up... Okay. I'm going to be brutally honest—most of the poetry I received here in response to past issues of PNG Poetry Online was pretty bad... at least for me. That and the above- mentioned is why this issue is small... and also because I had to move all the computer equipment across town and into my new digs—a basement in the middle of suburbia... which is not what I have in mind when I think underground web space...

I had some problems with photos... one is stranded somewhere in a box—I believe it's the one beside the furnace... so, in other words, I can't get the poet photo section together this issue... I know, I know—flimsy excuse... but that's the way it is. I'll resume it next issue...
