The Pillars of Slow Town are a series of chapbooks, the poems of which are structurally arranged across a lattice of variegated lines from a thus far unread pandemic epic. What’s in the poems? A bit of Toronto psychogeography, some of that gnosticism we all caught in lockdown, and rhythmic po-mo lyric. Includes a map of the to be completed pillars so you can follow along at home. Illustrations by Alex Hood of Haus of Decline.
Miles Forrester is a poet in Tkaronto (Toronto). He runs the bi-annual litzine workshop, Zugzwang at the Toronto Zine Library. You can find his chapbooks, Hippocamp (illustrated by Haus of Decline) and Slow Town Century (published by Discordia Review Press) at TZL, where he usually sits on Tuesday nights.
