other stuff:

-We are well past deadline on Da Ruckus vol II submissions and only one person has submitted. I may have forgot to mention that this time around we are in the process of teaming up with a real publishing company and will have a nice looking book of Ruckus poets with original artwork. Either way it will not look like a spiral notebook or have staples this time around. October first is the new deadline, and you submit by sending me one o two original poems no longer than one page in length: ruthlesshippies@gmail.com

-WORD on the 3d Monday of every month, so 9/19 is the next poetry at E-Street cafe hosted by Mr. Dylan Barmmer.

Edwin Decker Returns to the Ruckus!

Hello Ruckaholics. Edwin Decker was the first ever Ducky Waddle's Poetry Ruckus guest when we started this thing nearly two years gone by now. I am so stoked to have him back again, and you should be too! Ed's poems, essays and opinion columns are as ruthlessly funny and intelligent as they come. Read his latest Sordid Tales column here to get an idea of what you're in for.

See you at the Ruckus!!!
