Issue 11: Fall 2024
This issue of Tyger Quarterly is coming out on the 267th birthday of William Blake. Around 1826 Blake printed his Laocoön, at the top reads “Where any view of Money exists Art cannot be carried on but War only.” In this spirit of Blake, rather than putting out a new issue of poetry, the Tygers of Tyger Quarterly have put together links to writing, and other medias, that have figured as meaningful reading, writing, listening as we continue the fight to end Israel’s ongoing genocide in Palestine.

2. No Human Being Can Exist + No Human Being Can Exist by Saree Makdisi (from N+1)
3. Under the Jumbotron + William Blake’s ‘Laocoön’: Why this poet’s engraving reads like a protest poster” by Anahid Nersessian (from LRB + The Yale Review) 
4. On Israel and Lebanon: A Response to Adrienne Rich from One Black Woman by June Jordan (from New York War Crimes)

KIRA TUCKER








EXTRACT


At fifteen, my lost wisdom
teeth tumbled into plastic
bags thinner than the latex
gloves I could still taste.
Rushes of hot, thick blood
filled my mouth. I held gauze
in my jaw until it dripped.
I tongued the gaps where parts of me
once lay trapped under stubborn skin.
My stitched gums and fat face would heal
with brine and ice, but drugs
I needed to keep from feeling
once I really woke up. I was sore
for weeks despite the pills. Pain
made me almost miss what I had been
so eager to take away.
