Visual poetry from Jerome Berglund

Various scraps of text and photos in a collage, including "A Love Story," "Witch Hazel," a corn dog, flowers, cartoon characters in a pencil drawing, a person drinking milk, a couple walking and leaving footprints towards a crib, sunrise, sunset, the beach, and the stars at night.
Typewritten text in a triangle about directors always having the same accent in a screen test.
Car's red headlights off in the distance at night. Red words read "finish book cavalierly, wish had gone slower"

Jerome Berglund has worked as everything from dishwasher to paralegal, night watchman to assembler of heart valves. Many haiku, haiga and haibun he’s written have been exhibited or are forthcoming online and in print, most recently in bottle rockets, Frogpond, Kingfisher, and Presence. His first full-length collections of poetry Bathtub Poems and Funny Pages were just released by Setu and Meat For Tea press, and a mixed media chapbook showcasing his fine art photography is available now from Yavanika.
