Point blank

Sharp as the jab
of a needle through cloth
plunged, drawn
are those moments
where they tell you
that you're missing the point

and you know
they're right

Douglas Pugh lives in Northern Ontario with a logical wife and an insane menagerie. He likes to believe that he fills the gap in the middle. Bleeding words onto a page help with his delusion. When he's not writing, he's probably painting or out riding his bike. And thinking about writing more. He writes poetry, short stories and has two thriller novels for which he's looking for an agent.

During 2009/2010 he has been published in The Smoking Poet, Leaf Garden Press, Every Day Poetry, Mnemosyne Journal, ditch and Short Story Library as well as had works translated into Turkish and Italian. His fiction hasn't done bad either. He hopes to one day publish at least one book of his words.
