Daniel Lynch (‘The Great Stromboli’) - d. April 9th 2019

You perfected the peculiar,
worked with fire and steel
to earn your license to thrill.
The Strangest Show On Earth
plays to dazzled houses, still.

Dr John - d. June 6th 2019

There’s something bitter

in the gumbo tonight:

splinters of ivory,

herbs and bad voodoo.

Mac is gone, trippin’ 

beyond the reach 

of any medicine.

Paul Darrow - d. June 3rd 2019

Out beyond Star One

there is a planet, haven

for hackers and swindlers,

the serially betrayed,

the terminally cynical.

I hope you finally made

it there, down and safe.

Jake Black - d. May 21st 2019

Heard you at the tollbooths,

an accent I couldn’t explain,

part Bakersfield, part Nashville,

part Coldharbour Lane.

Fell asleep this morning,

never woke up again.
