MONO  has accepted two of my poems, 1 for publication in their Issue #2 and 1 for publication on their blog.  MONO  is a UK based journal literary journal “inviting dark humour, satire and brutally honest reflections on ordinary life that sit on the borderline of the melancholic and amusing.”  This is the second time they have accepted my work. My thanks to Editor Kayleigh Willis.
