Apocalyptic Date Idea #17

a poem by Julián Martinez

Many people say Julián Martinez is a counterweight to the “being a poet is embarrassing” pull. Today, Little Engines will join the chorus. Find a new one from his romantic series below.

Paired with Julián’s poem is an original collage from Ryan Evans, who begins his reign today as the magazine’s new Artist in Residence. His first piece came in A+ from a cold start, so I’m psyched on what’s to come with Ryan.

Next up: some fiction, I promise!
