Bewildering Stories welcomes...

B. Z. Niditch

B. Z. lives in Brookline, Massachusetts. He describes himself as a poet, playwright, fiction writer and teacher. He’s published widely in literary journals and magazines.

“Jack Kerouac’s Run” is a tribute to the Beatnik author. The second stanza glitters with memorable imagery, particularly:

But you exit
as any beachcomber
to Big Sur’s mouth
Jack, knifed with drink
handcuffed by a lexicon
still running after
a stab at one more day
