How to Go Too Far

Only those who
do forever
matter and

only the suffered
will go to heaven;

the rest will roam
as uglyfuckingspirits;

if things
do change and
I’m wrong,

that’s a
regret I’ll have to
deal with.


New Riverbed poems have been published. Check out: “On Wall-Attacks (i),” “On Wall-Attacks (ii),” “On Wall-Attacks (iii),” and “People who were.” The Riverbed was invited to collaborate in Titular’s project, The Passion of Mel Gibson. Check out “The Man without a Face”.



The Riverbed is no longer sidelined; he is off the bench and running the streets again. More streets will be attacked and ruined, he promises. The Riverbed will be on the streets of St. Augustine and Miami soon, so if interested in anything, hit him up at andy.riverbed (at) yahoo.com.




A really fucking-awesome band, The Ruins of West Palm Beach, was interviewed HERE.

391 is now back in action. They are inviting people to make footage and submit it; the Riverbed is planning on working on this project; if interested in collaborating, hit him up at andy.riverbed (at) yahoo.com

Krammer Abrahams has a story published HERE.

Paperwall #13 is out. Check it out HERE.

Chelsea Martin has a book out by Future Tense Books.

MuuMuu House books are, and in the future will be, available at the Wayward Council.


There’s an article on MuuMuu house in the March issue of Nylon magazine, so if you’re not a hipster tell all your hipster friends.

fue a
su gabeta

y se dío cuenta
que algún
duendesito

le había bajao
sus pali
otra vez.

so jaded

Old Mother
Hubbard

went to
her cupboard

and realized
some redundantly
little leprechaun

had watered down
her laudanum stash
again.

aviso adelantao

Peter Peter
comé-calabazas,

si te
tiras
uno mas
desos

tuber-peos
intrusivos

antes de la
la pregunta en ¿Quién
quiere ser millionario?,

mandaré tu sonrisita-
jack o’lantern

pa Salinas
en un taxi tan deprisa

que tu cabeza
no va volar,

se quedará

orientado hacía
tras.

- Translated from English by Andy Riverbed


fair warning

Peter Peter
Pumpkin Eater

if you cut loose
with even
one more
of those

unbelievably
intrusive tuber farts

before the crucial
question on Who Wants
To Be A Millionaire?,

I will put your jack-o’
lantern grin

back on a bus
for Salinas so fast

your head will
not only spin

but stop

facing
backwards.

- Dennis Mahagin
