Sublimation: Volume 1, Issue 4, September/October 2024 — Every Party Needs a Bard (Sublimation: a Magazine of Speculative Poetry and Art)

The vision of Sublimation is to promote speculative poetry and art. We want to give writers of genre poems a place to allow their voice to ring. This issue orbits around the theme "Every Party Needs a Bard." Within these pages are dances and feasts, groups of adventurers, odes to bards, and much singing. The bards in these works are poets, jazz and blues musicians, a son in mourning, birds, ghosts, sirens, mermaids, a tasty snack and more. Even if you've never played a roleplaying game, there is something here for you to enjoy.
