"I'm a strange person. Sometimes I hardly know what I'm going to do or say next. Sometimes I seem a stranger to myself. Sometimes what I do surprises me and I can't understand why I do it."

Lyanna

During the hourly wake of the city's mourners,
I escaped
to where none of us dared venture,
with the gynandromorphophile's long shadow
over my shoulder,
I escaped
to where no other nectar but yours—the XY-code's,
was harvested by the drones…

Freedom

We always found ourselves in Magdalena, a quaint, abandoned town nestled far in the western reaches, Lya and I, as we ventured into the Spree. I didn’t know why. And I had never really thought about it. Until now…

Milky-White Rose

In the neon-lit sprawl of tomorrow, I'll hoist
the milky-white rose
of synthetic essence—its fragrant code will weave
through the data stream, perfuming
the holonight's
Pro-Rata enthymeme
with sweet binary echoes of virtual "Qui Vive."

For Lyanna

Spree by Max R. J. Ovbi.

Step into the dystopian future of Spree, a genre-blending novella that throws all the storytelling rules out the window.

For God's Sake

In the decipherment of man's enigma,
my moves defy the algorithms,
embracing his ethereal origin,
a being misplaced
in this three-dimensional prison.

Here, I'm free
and will always be
until the day
I no longer remember the setting sun
before the night
when you and I made love
without bodies
for the first time.

Kinship

The essence of a fictive, chosen, or voluntary kinship is rooted in a profound sense of connection. This connection isn't always immediately recognized or mutual, but it's never entirely unfamiliar or one-sided...

GAMP and Transgender Pride

"I'm a GAMP, and it's not a writer's cramp that makes me wanna be amp about it—I'm a straight champ who don't need a Virgin Mary bigot or a lick-spigot vamp to question my mastodon feed, or my literary, noumenon handstamp."—Max R. J. Ovbi

I was stupidly thrilled while reading my e-newsletter from @elcultural to find the word "letraheridos" (more or less "people hurt by letters") to describe what English might call or lovers—and now I'm wondering if the origins of this newer term have anything to do with declaring was hurt into ... Wherever it came from, I'm declaring it the best word I've heard in ages.

@Zwieblein @poetry @translators We are all "wounded by letters, by words, by poems," that's why we read and write. I agree, it's a beautiful Spanish variant of the Catalan word lletraferit. Wordstricken!
