Awesome poetry is awesome and other redundant redunancies

For those of you interested in reading more David McGimpsey poems, you can find a few of them on a great site called NTHPOSITION. Of the three poems, my favourite is "Hoo ha U" - although all the poems make use of persona exceptionally well.

The poetry editor of the magazine is Todd Swift, a Montreal born writer now living in London wh0 has gone to publish books of his own poetry and edited renowned anthologies such as: 100 Poets Against the War and Short Fuse.

In the site you can also find works by other well known Montreal poets who also happen to be Concordia professors such as Jason Camlot (I'll be having a class with him in the upcoming Fall semester) and Stephine Bolster.

"nthposition is a free online magazine/ezine with politics & opinion, travel writing, fiction & poetry, reviews & interviews, and some high weirdness".

Ch-ch-ch-check it out.
