Poetry Projector 5

This week's poetry projection is from Ben Mirov's Ghost Machine, picked by Michael Burkard for the 2009 Caketrain Chapbook Competition. Either Ben or a ghost of Ben is poetry editor for LIT Magazine. Other ghosts of Ben might have published several books and chapbooks. Sometimes ghosts appear in his ghost catcher.
Ghost Machine is on backorder here. Enjoy.

In an interview with Alex Phillips:

"Sound and rhythm, ... those were like waves I wanted to surf, and in order to surf them you have to think about something else"
