Speculators 2012 Poems Published

At the end of the year, we've been putting together a list of the speculative (science fiction/horror/fantasy) poems the people in the group have published in the calendar year, so make list of your pubs and put it in the comments section below, or e-mail it to me, and I'll add them.

Categories: short poems (under 50 lines), haiku and scifaiku, long poems (50 lines and over)
(listing reprints is optional, but if you do, put them as a separate category).

Of the poetry we published last year, five were nominated for the SFPA Rhysling award: two for best short poem: "Going Viral," by Mary Turzillo, and "we play the lithophones," by dan smith; three for best long poem: "Six Random Facts About Halley's Comet," by J.E. Stanley, plus "Galatea" and "Tohoku Tsunami," both by Mary Turzillo.  Congratulations!
