The river is rippling like beer foams
A slightly drunk smile draining away
Everything turns as normal

The river is rippling like beer foams
Moonlight joggling over the dim water
Memory is broken into kaleidoscope

The river is rippling like beer foams
A slightly drunk smile draining away

PRESS RELEASE

THE POETIC BOND III

Publication date 30^th September, 2013

Contact; Trevor Maynard, editor, thepoeticbond@uk2.net

The Poetic Bond III is the third anthology of poets from new media, social and professional networking, mainly garnered from the professional networking website, LinkedIn, but also through performance and word of mouth. The Poetic Bond is about exploring, sharing and encouraging poetry from all over the world.

Thirty-six poets from 11 countries were selected through a submission process in which there were no restrictions on form, style, length of subject; instead the choices made were on the basis of emergent themes and congruency in the pool of work; a snapshot of the poetry of new media NOW, seeking to capture the zeitgeist of the moment.
