Circus by Michael Robins





Our casualties I hear precede the smoke,
in a bed of snakes. There can be no rain

in America, no grass: trains are angry here
as some are sad, processional for an ear.




Michael Robins is the author of The Next Settlement (UNT Press, 2007). He lives in Chicago.


Circus is a hand bound book of poems, with a photograph mounted on each cover, and printed in an edition of 74.

Calling Possible Poets of the Probable Apocalypse

Flying Guillotine Press
& the First Annual Doomsday Festival & Symposium

are Asking You to Imagine Demise.





The First Annual Doomsday Festival & Symposium, a festival of revelatory film, destruction literature, Butoh, and intellectual disaster, will take place October 23-25 in New York City. In addition to a host of film screenings, expert discussions, panels, and Butoh performances, Flying Guillotine Press will curate a poetry reading and publish a limited edition anthology of Apocalypse poems.

We invite you to submit apocalypse poems for the anthology!

Please email them to flyingguillotinepress at gmail dot com by October 5th. We want to publish as many as possible, but depending on how many submissions we get we may not. Let us know if they are previously published.



Please feel free to tell everyone you know. The more voices, the more cacophonous our doom.

See you in hell,

Flying Guillotine Press
