The luxurious /lit/ zine Pinecone is BACK with our new, flashy CONSPIRACY POETRY issue.

>Where?

https://files.catbox.moe/yk172h.pdf

>Why?

This improved version of Pinecone has no pesky table of contents or annoying page numbers. And there is plenty of hot content. So we hope you take a peak inside this cushy casket of conspiracy poetry.

>Can I submit for the next one?

Submissions are now open on a rolling basis. We're more interested in working with authors to get their work up to snuff—cringectomies, plastic surgery, a few hours in the makeup chair with Corporation—than just tossing out yes/no.

Submissions should go to: pineconemagazine at gmail dot com

>What kind of submissions?

1 to 2 pages of fiction or nonfiction. Please no more poetry. Please.

>Anything else?

Special thanks to Television, Atticus, and Charlotte "Corporation" Townshend for making this possible, and to the Boston Literature group. And thanks to to all our readers and everyone who submitted.
