    I write poetry zines and ebooks and am currently working on updating them all into Smashwords. If you are not familiar with a ZINE it is a book produced from a photo copier or a printer. I have just come back from my first zinefest in NYC held at Barnard College. I also write fiction and my first book is called SLANTBOARD which takes place in the future where people can ride on boards that float a little off the ground nor do they go much over 10 miles and hour so they have a similar culture to long-distance bike riding. Thanks for reading!

      Population Interuptus - Connie Boje

      P O P U L A T I O N I N T E R U P T U S

      By Connie Boje

      2014-2016 SMASHWORDS EDITION

      P O P U L A T I O N I N T E R U P T U S

      the people were ejaculated out of their

      peep hole into a stream of profundity

      and into the S T R A T O S P H E R E

      of outer space called the B I G  B A N G

      the BIG VOID the BIG UNKNOWN

      the thing is they DID know

      (too late) that their lives were

      obsolete and about to change

      for the worse

      how could we have done it

      they asked themselves and

      each other while at the same

      time in the bottomless pit of

      their stomach THEY KNEW

      THE ANSWER

      we stopped being human

      came the reply

      (F U K)

      there is something AGOIN ON

      AGOIN ON and it smells STRONG

      because it is wrong not about

      sex but about melding the

      humans into NEW Godzilla

      creations and a fouling

      the global top earth

      above ground fowls

      and fisheries in

      communities till

      there can ONLY BE

      genetically engineered

      S P E C I E S

      (H I G H – B R E D)

      you high breeds of middle class

      you sharp new shiny asses

      of middle classes modern masses

      you have been bred to bed

      (or wed) the upper crusts

      of the apple pie nations

      to transliterate the mating

      of the populations of ALL nations

      on Earth

      the elite (you are) so high

      up (but definitely NOT TOP)

      where we are

      but so far
