The Bleed is Avantexte Press' print and digital journal of concrete and visual poetry, presenting the finest contemporary work being done in a centuries-old tradition that merges the literary and visual art forms.

The issue features work from: ark codex ±0 john moore williams tyree callahan anne gorrick scott helmes andrew topel el pajaro mixto mIEKAL aND
