tender river 9.4.12

our upcoming river, TENDER RIVER, showcases both editors of the poetry magazine tenderloin, Mel Coyle and Jenn Marie Nunes, and their most recent supplicant, Min K. Kang, whose work is currently LIVE @ tender-loin.com/.

Min K. Kang was born in Busan, South Korea and grew up in Texas. She is a graduate of Texas A&M and San Francisco State. Her poetry has appeared or is forthcoming in Asia Literary Review, Santa Clara Review, Transfer, and the anthology for Thymos, an organization for Asian American Activism and Awareness. She currently studies creative writing at Louisiana State and lives in Baton Rouge for most of the year.

tenderloin editors, Mel Coyle and Jenn Marie Nunes, speak of their corrupted art:
"the meat is weird; the poet speaks of this. when speaking of the meat try not to make sense of the loin of making sense. not about weight. but about balance. or weight. we speak of weight in our product. who we take down with us when we go is always an art."
