Prometheus Dreaming

THUS SPAKE PROMETHEUS

Poetry as it was meant to be

Poetry was always an auditory experience. From the Homers and Hesiods of old to Irish bards and even now to modern Hip Hop, poetry was meant to be experienced and visceral.

But we're a literary journal. What can we do about that?

Well.

Every month we choose one poem (or a very very short short fiction piece) and record it being read aloud by a lovely performer, and then we share it with you.

This month we're featuring "Collections" by Devon Deming.

Check out the full text of the poem here.

about the journal

Prometheus is a titan of old. He is the fire thief. The life breather. A trickster deity and the author of the arts. Prometheus Dreaming is an online cultural journal dedicated to those things that make his sacrifice worthwhile. The depths of the soul. The oddities of life. Those things that live at the boundaries of human experience, and the downright weird. This is the place for the knowledge of dreams and the terror of the dark.
